There you go:

Sheik Zayed Grand Mosque, Abu Dhabi.

Fuji XT-1 & 10-24

It's beautiful, thank you for sharing! I am impressed with every single part of it. Could you please let us know details behind it? Like how you achieved such a dynamic range?

Busy shooting a book project at the mo... The book is interviews with emergency services/first responders and is covering quite a range... I am at the air sea rescue base of RNoAF 330 Squadron on the south west coast of Norway at the moment... Here are a couple of shots from today.. can't post everything for obvious reasons :) ( this is going to be a book next autumn) :)

ZoranC,

thanks for your kind words. We all know, the Fujis are incredible capable cameras. That's the reason why I usually use RAW+Fine and edit if needed in Capture One 8

BUT ... the image you see is just a small LR edit from the In-camera JPEG.

You may visit this page of my other (family) website to see the difference between the two images.

The only changes in LR are:

- Exposure: +0.25
- Contrast: +7
- Shadows -7
- Whites +37
- Blacks -8

and finally

Blue Primary
-Saturation +100

to achieve a punchier overall look and blue skies.

The settings have been:
ISO 200, 10 mm, f/8, 1/640 sec.

Thank you! And that was it?! Not even a DR200? Incredible! I could've almost sworn that "exposure blend" was used considering how shot transitions from having clean floor in shadow to outside whites but transition looked to me too natural looking for it to be exposure blend.

DR:Auto.

All the time.

Coming towards the end of my stay with 330 Squadron (air sea rescue) and today we were on a flight in one of their Sea King helicopters! What an experience.. here after landing I handed my X-Pro1 to the onboard doctor and we got this shot of me and the books author sitting in the doorway...

Port Townsend is as comfortable as an old shoe, and I would live here if I could.
