I'm on vacation in Devon at the moment and having some downtime today as the weather is not so good, so thought I'd post a few shots.
Excuse the crude editing,i'm using my wife's laptop with has no editing software apart from the standard win7 stuff.
Ah, Dartmouth - one of the most photogenic places ever! Nice shots - I just picked up my X100 yesterday, and I'm loving the fact that it's a whole new mindset for me. I generally shoot sports with my 1D mk IV, so instant focus, 10 fps etc has made me lazy. I find I'm thinking a lot more about the shots I want to take now. I'll post some images when I've got up to speed.
@drchp: Lovely shots. Love the one with the elderly ladies.
@rattymouse: what are those??
@domdog31: the colors straight out of the camera (and it´s customability) are just amazing...
@pingflood: There´s only two kinds or X100 owners: the lovers and the haters. I have a feeling you´ll be among the first ones. ;-) Love the shot of the girl...
@felixj: thanks so much for your comments and for watching.
Just to bring this thread back to where it belongs, first page, here another long exposure, 4 minutes at sunset:

It gives a totally different mindset in viewing your images as well. I remember getting rolls back in the past and you'd look through them and enjoy the images. Not have 25 images of the same pose and try to figure out if a slight change of arm position or expression was better or worse than the other 24 frames.....
So true and so well said. Makes me nostalgic for the film days.
Some really nice photos in this thread. I've actually sold my X100 (got offered an OM-D at too good a price to refuse) but kind of miss it . Here's a few from the Seychelles:
Thanks BokehBeauty (great name by the way). She is full of P & V, that horse ~ interesting mix - thoroughbred and Connemara pony! She is my niece's (age 11) horse; and they are getting to know each other for show jumping. It's a bit of a rocky road, but they are getting there!
Ok not my first choice for motorsport, but after spending some time the previous day with a DLSR setup I then took the family for more of a relaxed visit to La Vie en Bleu at Prescott Speed Hill Climb.
The X100 being a smaller camera is a little tricky to keep perfectly smooth, but I got some keepers:
