A Travel, Photography and Points Blog
I heard about The Mantle in Fremantle a little while ago but never got a chance to check it out until recently. This cool little warehouse space houses several different pop up restaurants. Don Tapas is one of them and it looks to be its permanent home! The Mantle is located just a little bit outside of the heart of Fremantle. It is also home to the famous Short Order Burgers (that’s only open on certain days/nights) and a cool bar called Alter Ego, which is right next to Don Tapas.
This is part two of the images I took at the Fujifilm photowalk at Matilda Bay Reserve in Crawley, organised by the good people at Camera Electronics. Part one focused on shooting wide angle shots. Part two features images taken with the hefty “pro zoom”, the Fujinon XF 16-55mm F2.8 lens and nifty Fujinon XF 60mm F2.4 lens.
Back in July, the cool people at Camera Electronics kindly organised a Fujifilm photowalk at Matilda Bay Reserve in Crawley. I didn’t do much walking and experimented plenty with the awesome Fujinon lenses. The camera shop and the rep from Fujifilm brought along a huge selection of Fujifilm camera bodies and lenses. I got a chance to try out a range finder style camera (i.e. the Fujifilm X100 series and the X-Pro series), which was pretty interesting, definitely takes some time getting used to! More importantly I got to play around with a few lenses I’ve been wanting to try out.
The weather was beautiful and sunny the weekend that just passed. I can’t remember the last time we had great weekend weather. My friends and I made good use of the weather and drove out to Ellis Brook Reserve. Ellis Brook Reserve is located in Gosnells, 30 minutes away from Perth city by car.
I seem to be hearing about a new cafe every week in Perth. I’m not one to complain that the Perth food scene is getting more and more interesting though. Frisch and Barc is one of the newer cafes that has popped up south of the river in Como.
