Scenes Seen/Father, Daughter, & Son Gallivanting: GFX + ROKKOR 58mm f/1.2.

The motivation.

The usual. Photography as a distraction. Much needed nowadays.

The setting.

I did something right. My kids were going to the mall and invited me along. And bought their own stuff… I even found an outfit. Nice.

The rig.

Officially an all time favorite.

Minolta MC Rokkor PG 58mm f/1.2
So… The GFX 50R Intro: Or How A Leica Camera Release Freed Me Up To Get A Fujifilm Camera.
Lens Arrival: Minolta MC Rokkor 58mm f/1.2 – Digital Edit.

So much so that, whether the situation fits or not, it is what I would prefer to use. And when used within the realm of realistic expectations, it never disappoints. More on this will be outlined below.

The photos.

Never thought about this before, but my appreciation for GFX also has something to do with them being perfectly sized for my beef mitts.

My son remembering he does not like malls after wanting to go to the mall. The people are there.

Did not even have to drive.

Stopped by my Mom’s house. They visited with my Mom while I cut the lawn after realizing it grew more than I expected.

Thoughts.

Perspective.

While the outside world burns, I am reminded that there are some bright spots to appreciate along the way.

Like time spent with family.

Happy capturing.
