Colour Warsaw

During weekend, I have no free time for dedicated walk on the streets with the camera, so today I was happy to have a short hour after work, and before the dusk to have short walk around on the streets of Warsaw. I wanted to shoot with film, but quickly it occurred that it become to dark for the film and B&W EI 400 Trix film, so I switched to digital. I wanted to shoot in black and white but when I’ve noticed those neons and colours all around I’ve decided to shoot in colour. FujiFilm X100 is great with those film simulation settings. You can choose Provia/Standard, Velvia/Vivid, and Astia/Soft. My favourite setting is Astia/Soft – Vevia sometimes is too Vivid for me.
Even though I was short on the street, I really like the results – I was lucky to capture few nice frames. Check the results.

Man with the briefcase. I was lucky to capture that moment. I was in a hurry so picture is not perfect - but it's close to what is called decisive moment.
