Santa Monica Nights – Behind The Shot
Some sunsets or scenes are so amazing that they don’t need much post-processing. I’ve spent days on some shots, and minutes on others. This shot was quick and easy to process, and I’ll show you the tools I used.

Fujifilm TCL-X100 Tele Conversion Review
The TCL-X100 II Tele Conversion lens is a lens you put over the X100 lens adding a 1.4x optical crop giving it a 50mm field of view in the equivalent 35mm format. It screws onto the front filter threads of any of the Fuji X100 series camera lenses.
