POTW 22 Jan 13

It's been an interesting week this week. Of late there' has been a spike in black and whites and reportage shots. That may be due to various factors including the number of Fuji fanatics at present.

My choice for picture of the week this week is a black and white shot by Geoff M using a Fuji X-E1. The simplicty of the image, the treatment and the isolation of the subject come together nicely to make a fine image.

Thank you. Despite a few niggles the Fuji is a joy to use and because of it's diminutive size i find my self attempting different genre's of photography that I would not have attempted with a DSLR, so thank you Fuji too!
