Goodbyes and Hellos

Goodbye... I will miss you, but I will still see you from time to time.

Heelloooooo, good looking!

Passing of a Giant

Our beloved Fujifilm S2 pro. This was one of those cameras that gave you emotion swings. Such beautiful color, natural skin tone and dynamic range that make you want jump and shout for joy. At the same time it makes you frustrated as you send it in and out of the service center more times than we can remember. It is finally stricken with the black-screen-of-death and, also perhaps, a sticky shutter. One of these days I will bring it into Fuji service center one last time, just to hear the ridiculous amount of money they want to charge to get the camera fixed. In my heart I have already decided to move on. RIP S2!

I did a dump of images from an old camera's CF card. Took a quick look and found some interesting pictures taken by my wife. This is my wife's cam now and whenever she joined me for my shoots, she will fiddle with the hand-me-down prosumer superzoom and snap some pictures. I have to say that I am impressed. She is getting good. So I PP'ed her pictures on her behalf and here they are.
