 ”lawn lines...” Charles Saadiq, Michigan 2018 0/1 sec, f/16, ISO 250 - Captured with a vintage Minolta 28mm f/2.8 lens on a FujiFilm X-T10 Equipment camera: FujiFilm X-T10 lens: a vintage Minolta 28mm f/2.8 As I am entering my middle-age years, I am becoming more connected to nature. This feeling brings me a greater sense of peace with unresolved isssues in my past now knowing that all things are temporary. Life is a continuous cycle and I want to practice a more gentle approach to dealing with personal hardships. ‘Practice’ is the key word because the act of negative thoughts is difficult habit to break. Yet my interactions with animals and plants are heeling. This new level of peace is beginning to reflect in my photography.

 park bench... 1/210 sec , f/2.8 , ISO 250 Equipment camera: FujiFilm X-T10 lens: a vintage Minolta 28mm f/2.8 Over the past year, I've been neglecting my collection of vintage lenses so I decided to pair a Minolta 28mm f/2.8 with a FujiFilm X-T10 to do a street photography theme on reflections and shadows. Most of the images were shot wide open with the exemption of a few where I stopped at f/11. I like high contrast photographs so I enjoying shooting before noon to capture really dark shadows. Using vintage lenses on a mirrorless camera is my preference for digital photography. The process of having to set the aperture and focus manually gives me a greater sense of accomplishment. I was fortunate to create about 25 photographs from this zine project that I am quite happy with! Here is a sample:
The photograph was captured with a vintage Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 lens on a mirrorless FujiFilm X-T10.
