Dublin Flea Market with the Fuji X-Pro 2 in Acros

Dublin Flea Market with the Fuji X-Pro 2 in Acros

Last weekend here in Dublin, there was a special Christmas edition of the monthly Dublin flea market, and I went along with my camera (of course) to check it out. It wasn’t exactly a typical Christmas market, more of a special extra large version of the normal market for Christmas. It was a nice experience, and there was some lovely stands with some really nice and friendly sellers there. The market stalls had everything from antiques to unique creations, including some cool vintage toys.

I didn’t shoot too much there, as I didn’t want to be “that guy”, but I did take some shots for my Streets of Dublin blog. I was using my X-Pro 2 with 18-55mm lens. I originally shot in colour and RAW, and for the Streets of Dublin page, I posted the shots in colour. However, after I had posted them , I was playing around some more, and I re-graded them using some of my Acros presets. I actually really like the colour versions too, so I’m posting the black and white versions here!

You can download my Acros presets here. one that they require the Acros profile and so they’ll only work with an X-Pro 2 or X-T2 (so far) or any future camera that has the profiles. Please stop by and check out my Streets of Dublin project too! I’ve been quiet on it for a while, but it’s going to be back to full swing in the new year.
