Fuji X Aus PERTH February Meet up ft. Minimalism

On Sunday, the Fuji X Aus Perth group met up for our first official event of 2019. It was a casual gathering of Fujifilm enthusiasts. We met up at Yagan Square in Perth, then slowly meandered our way around Yagan Square towards the Cultural Centre and Alexander Library. The theme of the day was Minimalism. I found it a great challenge. I unintentionally applied minimalism to the number of photos I took too! Over the 2 hour period I only shot 15 different photos and culled it down to 7. Technically only 6 out of the 7 shots fit the photo theme of the day (you’ll see what I mean at the end)

Landscape photography has become one of my favourite genres of photography since I changed over to the Fujifilm X mirrorless camera system. It’s hard to go wrong with the combination of experiencing nature and its beauty with the creativity of photography. When I heard from our fellow FXA Perth reps Gus and Chong that they were looking into organising FXA Perth’s first ever landscape photography workshop down in Margaret River, I was stoked! I was also excited to hear a fellow FXA Facebook community member James Posilero will be running the workshop. I’ve long admired his beautiful landscape photography that he shares in the group. It was a fun and educational weekend down in the Margaret River region of Western Australia. It was also the perfect sized group of 6 photographers. We got to know each other, our photography interests and also learned from each other.

Santorini sunsets — Santorini Sunset, Greece. July 2018

I’m writing this in the second week of the new year. The busy end of year rush in December meant I didn’t get a chance to sit down and reflect on my 2018 year of photography. Better late than never! As usual I’ve set myself a variety of goals for the new year and several of them of course include photography, blogging and travelling. Before we dig into my goals for 2019, lets have a look at how I went in 2018.
