13.8 km / 8.6 miles 🚶

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!

The gear

Camera:
Fujifilm X-E2

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

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

Film simulation recipe:
Kodachrome 64

Monschau 🇩🇪

The gear

Fujifilm X-S10

Camera lens:
Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR

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

Durbuy 🇧🇪

Durbuy is a city and municipality of Wallonia located in the province of Luxembourg, Belgium.

The story

Just a quick stroll through cold, sunny Durbuy on this Friday the 13th, nearly six years since my last visit – this time with the mighty manual 35mm Mitakon, offering a nifty fifty-equivalent field of view. I should have brought a wider lens, as the Mitakon feels a bit too compressed.

The gear

Camera:
Fujifilm X-T3

Camera lens:
Mitakon Speedmaster 35mm f/0.95 II

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

Film simulation recipe:

Tongeren 🇧🇪

Tongeren is a city and municipality located in the Belgian province of Limburg, in the southeastern corner of the Flemish region of Belgium. Tongeren is the oldest town in Belgium, as the only Roman administrative capital within the country's borders.

The story

It’s the first weekend after my holiday, so I felt the need to get out and take some pictures – this time in Tongeren again. I hadn’t used the Kodak Max 800 film simulation recipe or my 50mm f/2 lens in a long time, so now’s the perfect moment to do so!

The gear

Camera:
Fujifilm X-S10

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

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

Film simulation recipe:
