If photos were superheros, their superpower would be their ability to convey a story at a glance. On a cloudy day, at the ‘Jersey Shore’ I caught this bike, the sandals, and the handful of cloud bathers out in the sand. Which one rode in on the bike? Where did they ride in from? Was this a daily pilgrimage or a one day bike rental? What is the narrative here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I like to capture scenes like this and hold on them. Save them for a cold, cloudy winter’s day – to unwrap them and use their heat, as needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
About the Photo:<\/strong> Taken with the venerable Fuji X-T2 – which I feel is the perfect APS-C camera for me. It drives like a Porsche, has every control you need on a dial right in front of you, and still after 7 years, takes photos that make me very, very proud. I’ll upgrade when this one falls apart thank you. I paired the camera with Fuji’s XF 35mm f\/2 lens, (50mm equivalent), which is also quite wonderful. A great walk around and travel lens, which is to say small, light and visually awesome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n “Every picture tells a story, don’t it?” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If photos were superheros, their superpower would be their ability to convey a story at a glance.
