Living Mirror

Living Mirror

Michael Mesh Oct 7, 2026 0
In Living Mirror, Michael Mesh explores the evolving relationship between photography, memory, authenticity and the way we look at images. From old 35mm slides and family photographs to AI-generated images, selfies and photographs made in museums and on city streets, he considers what gives an image meaning beyond its appearance. At the heart of the essay is the idea of photography as a living mirror, one that changes because we change when we return to the photographs we once made.

Hands-on Review: Fujifilm X100VI

Alessandro Miceli Sep 28, 2026 0
In this hands-on review, Alessandro Miceli explains how the Fujifilm X100VI changed his approach to photography. Frustrated by endless RAW files and hours of post-processing, he turned to the X100VI for its compact design, fixed 23mm f/2 lens, JPEG quality and Film Simulations. From travel and landscapes to portraits, evenings with friends and weekends with his girlfriend, Alessandro shares how the camera helped him focus less on editing and more on capturing and sharing the moments that matter.

TTArtisan 23mm f/1.8 AF — The lens I keep on my camera

Paola Panebianco Sep 23, 2026 0
In this hands-on review, Paola Panebianco takes the TTArtisan 23mm f/1.8 AF to Calpe, Spain, photographing the colourful geometry of Ricardo Bofill’s Muralla Roja. With its compact size, 35mm-equivalent field of view, f/1.8 aperture and autofocus, the lens proves particularly well suited to travel, street and architecture photography. Paola also looks at its compromises, including softer corners at wider apertures, vignetting and the lack of weather sealing, and explains why it has become the lens she keeps on her Fujifilm camera.

From SOOC to actually ready to post

The Boring Last Step If you shoot Fujifilm, chances are your images already look finished the moment they leave the camera. That’s the whole point of the film simulations and custom recipes so many of us obsess over: get the look right in-camera, skip the heavy editing, trust the JPEG.…

The «cliché» of Brittany

A Winter road trip in Brittany… I imagine that sentence shouldn’t be a dream for many people. The grey sky, the wind, the rain, the cold, the fog. This region of northwestern France has always had a terrible reputation for its weather. Me being the first, when I think about…

Friends, coffee and motorcycles in Buenos Aires

Friendships are often born out of common interests, such as motorcycles for example. And these interests are often the cement that unites friendships for a lifetime. And just a small pretext, like a simple “Shall we have a coffee?”, is enough to grab the helmet and jacket. A visual story…

Fujifilm X100V and X-E4 photo adventure in Nebraska

The Fujifilm X100V just may be my favorite camera of all time. It’s small, compact and can go almost everywhere with me. The X-E4 is almost as small, but can use different lenses. I think there’s room for both, so I took them along with me for a photo adventure…
