Favorite Shots from 2017

Looking back through the year of photography is always a good experience in both remembering the fun times and trying to think about the things that I got better at this year.  In the early part of the year, I splurged and bought an open box Fuji X-Pro2.  I had my eye on this camera since it was announced and was not disappointed once it was in my hands.  The optical viewfinder with primes lenses works extremely well and made me want to slow down and just watch for specific moments to capture.  Toward the end of the year, I picked up a Mitakon 35mm f/0.95 manual focus lens and since I first put it on the camera, it has barely come off.  The optical viewfinder combined with a lens like this just makes shooting such a joy.  I am very excited to see what 2018 brings and what else I can get in front of my camera.
