I agree with Carsten; Highly distracting. Also beautiful photos. Nice colour toning too.
So I work very near this central traffic hub in Stockholm, called Slussen. It's a place many people traverse daily, be it in their cars, boats, bicycles or on foot. It's old, kind of harsh looking and worn down, and is also about to be knocked down to make way for something entirely new. People rush through here every day but I get the impression most only acknowledge it for it's function. But it actually has some interesting form, too. It's the meeting between these structures and the human element that interest me. It's a bit of a project in the making. Here are just a couple of examples.

Nice shots Absolutic and good to read on DPR you're enjoying your X100!
Thank you, I can't believe I waited for 2 years without this thing!!!! But you also see on dpreview that several people are trying to convince me that XE1 is better than X100

I fancy it too but I'll wait till the next version and the 56mm f1.2 lens. Then I'm so in!
Now that they are more or less available, I traded in the last of my Canon DSLR gear for a X100s. I now have only Fuji X cameras and lenses with a smattering of legacy lenses. I'll get out in the next few days & play around with it. I have been reading this thread since day one off & on. I just have not felt compelled to say anything. There are some nice shots here and the dialog is both constructive & friendly.
My only fist hand experience with an X100 was a few shots I took last year at a wedding with a camera a guest had with him. I liked it then and have wanted one ever since. My first impression of the X100s is favorable. Control layout is a bit different than the X pro1 & X-E1's that I have, but not so that it is a handicap. Once I figure it all out, it will be nice. I might even post a few images if I can manage to capture anything worthy.
I think a step up ring & a Canon 250D close up lens will make this a pretty useful all around kit for my travels.
Edit: I had a look at my first outing with this camera, which was a walk with my grandkids to a local swamp. some quick processed raws in LR5
My first shot, Sorry my dog was busy & I have no cat!
