A Brilliant Photographer, whose imagery captivates....
the force is strong with this one
Very impressive stuff! And you have done this with crop sensor cameras that can be had for moderate cost.! Very, very well done. Like you, am a Fujifilm fan. So far, I have only invested in x100 series cameras. I like that they do not allow me to change lenses. This keeps my GAS from getting even more outrageous.
