The city is in the centre of Belgium's fruit-producing region, Haspengouw, and is renowned for its pears, apples, and sweet cherries.

The story

After a busy, noisy day in Brussels, today was the time to slow down and take a calm walk on a sunny day, manually focusing the Mitakon lens on the widely praised X-E2 with its amazing sensor. A new film simulation recipe today: on sunny days, black and white always looks good, especially with a red filter effect. I even spotted some angry birds today!

Köln (Cologne) 🇩🇪

Cologne is the largest city of Germany's most populous state of North Rhine-Westphalia and it is the most populous city of both the Rhine-Ruhr Metropolitan Region and the Rhineland.

The story

I was in the mood to take my good old Fujifilm X-E2 out on a date today, so I did! Unfortunately, my 23mm lens had some issues, so I paired it with the 50mm instead. That combo requires a city with enough ‘room’ for a full-frame equivalent 77mm field of view – so Cologne it was!

Camera:
Fujifilm X-E2

Camera lens:
Fujinon XF 50mm f/2 R WR

Camera lens filter:
Tiffen Black Pro-Mist Filter 1/4
