Friday Image No.172

Blackpool pier and beach
Blackpool pier and beach. Fuji X-T2, Fuji 18-55 lens, ISO200, 1/450″ at f/8.0. Handheld.

On Monday, just before the arrival of the snow and arctic winds in the UK, I visited Blackpool. I have already shared one of the images from that trip, where the performance of the Fuji 18-55 lens quite literally amazed me. This post shows another image from the trip, also shot with the same lens. The processing was applied in Lightroom and then with the Nik Collection.

If you’re interested in the processing, I posted the entire thing to my You Tube channel.

The image was captured handheld with the Fuji X-T2 using the Fuji 18-55 lens. I would have loved to have used a filter on the sky, but I didn’t have any with me. There was also some clutter in the bottom left of the frame that has been cropped out in the final image.

I hope you like the image and video.

Have a great weekend.

  1. A great B&W conversion Robin. And I’m enjoying the LR Video. I have steered clear of Lightroom for all sorts of reasons but this video is making me re-think. LR seems to have so many more creative tools and adjustment potentials compared with Photoshop.

  2. Dear Robin,

    Thanks for this and all your U-tube videos. Also a huge thank you for the new Lightroom book. I didn’t realise how much I needed it until I started reading. Excellent as always.

    Thanks and best wishes, Lorraine.
