Singapore has entered Circuit Breaker Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) again due to the rise of Delta variant in multiple new clusters. Fortunately, the Fujifans managed to meet up for a morning photowalk.
Over here, I will not disclose what Fujifilm camera I am using. You can make a guess and comment down below. All photos are post-processed with intended additional grain effect.

Circuit Breaker Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) started on 16 May 2021 and lasted for a month. As we are now moving into Phase 2 of re-opening, we started out with a small group of gangs for a small photowalk in the morning at the Kebun Baru Birdsinging club and the neighbourhood around it.
I also take this opportunity to play with my XF27mm WR lens, XF 70-300mm with an X-Pro3. I have to thanks my neighbor (Mr. Ivan Loh) for lending me this wonderful and sexy camera body.

A new friend who is using Olympus at the moment. Planning to jump over to Fujifilm.

Finally, I have the opportunity to use my XF70-300mm for a street shoot. It is a fun photowalk with fellow Fuji fanboys and girl. We spend more time having conversations while walking, and also resting & hydrating ourselves. I think we still manage to take some wonderful shots.
Talking about using this lens for street, I know there are people who think that there are better and more suitable lenses out there than this telephoto lens. I agree with that. Given its size and weight, it is not a wise choice of weapon for street. But I am not a wildlife shooter, so I love to use this lens for different street perspective shots than I always shoot with (X100V).
However, the weather is not on my side. It rains heavily. And hence, most of my shots are taken are at a pretty high ISO due to the small aperture of this lens.

If it is not seeing my colleague one last time before he heading back to his country, I would not have this opportunity to visit Jewel Changi Airport. It was almost a year since my last visit to the Jewel and everything still looks the same, just added a few more barricades and scanning counters.
And I finally get to bring my X-E3 and XF23mm F2 for a spin. The last time I used the XF23mm was like in December 2019. Shots are all straight out of camera.
I was at City Hall and was having a coffee time with a friend. Then I decided to meet my wife at Vivo city for a dinner. As usual, I love to see things while commuting, so I choose to commute by bus than train.
While on my way to the destination, I saw some nice street spots for street photography. I have the intention to alight from the bus and do some quick snaps. But based on my experience, I am surely late if I do it. So to avoid my wife waiting for me, I decided to shoot through the window while on the move. Surprisingly, not too bad. What do you think?
Did I mention my X100V is with me?
