Royal Wedding Street Party

While visiting friends in the village of Belton, Leicestershire, I experienced a street party … I took photos on my FujiFilm X100. It’s super discreet and having the fixed lens makes you work that little bit harder to get in close while all the time allowing you to really get to know the focal length. [...]

The Dog Loves Snow
