Jason Walter Welch – New York City / Tokyo

I spent Sunday afternoon with Chiho and my sister enjoying the vibrant scenes of the Brooklyn Botanical Garden.  Yes, it’s quite nice to have the Brooklyn Museum, Botanical Garden, Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Public Library just footsteps from my home.

Fuji X-Pro 1 is starting to feel like a winner. Manual focus while pressing the AF-L produces satisfying results. Women in the Red Dress: this moment happened quickly as I ran toward her with my camera up to eye.  Her red dress stood out in an otherwise gritty scene. Sure, hailing a cab is a quintessential New York experience, but this woman knows how to do it in bold color.

Shot with my new Fuji X-Pro 1 while on my lunch break from work.  It’s a joy to use this camera on the street. However, at times, it can be equally frustrating. I’ve only had it for a few days, so there is still much to discover and learn. Hopefully, in the coming days, I’ll find my way around this beautiful camera.
