Before the winter came, I went out as the fall leaves had just fallen late one weekend afternoon. I wanted to find leaves-on-water and I was not disappointed. I took most of these images with the Olympus EM1-2 and the not-used-so-much 40-150 f/4.0. That lens, which I bought a year or two ago, has been really underused. It’s super compact, so much so that you have to “unlock” it and extend the lens before you can use it. The nice thing is that the lens is internal focusing once extended and super sharp. I used it as a long-distance close-up

Rented a Fuji X100VI for a week to gauge its suitability for me. The quick answer is Yes and as quick as I can find one without paying a premium, I will get it. It’s a great travel camera. A great family camera. It’s got great customization, maybe too much. But it is undeniable that the image quality is really good. Having only a 35mm lens, like I used to do with my Leica’s, really keeps you from worrying. I really shoot from 24-50 for 90% of my shooting on a M43 12-40/2.8 lens, so it’s not a big stretch
On vacation and when you have a few minutes very early at the beach (on Cape Cod) before the hordes of people get there, you can scurry around on a Sunday morning and get nice photos. The first one has been picked to be in an online Photo Magazine and has hung in a couple of photography shows already

A representative photo of the times. A pay phone that says it works, but obviously does not. I remember these ubiquitous phone boots all over, it was the only way to call your office or spouse when you were on the road. Calling cards, collect calls, all a thing of the past.

So I don’t have much time these days to take photos, so I just zip around between random errands to local areas before I have to either get home to fix dinner or get to a work call. These photos are from both decayed facilities and what was slated for demolition and redevelopment, the old Sevelle’s Auto Body in Westfield, NJ. As usual, all with the Olympus EM1.2 and the 12-40/2.8
Driving by the Cranford Canoe club one afternoon in late November and the shapes of the canoes were calling to me while the leaves were still somewhat alive and fresh fallen. I have had very good results at this local club when they store the canoes for the winter season. This time, it had rained quite a bit and there was an upturned boat with leaves that was pretty neat with the super clear water and leaves that had fallen to the bottom of the water waiting to decompose. I’ll have to come back when there is some snow. All
