The salt marshes on and along Amelia Island are ablaze with autumn colors. Now that the heat and humidity of summer have passed, it’s a good time to explore the island’s natural beauty.

I don’t know the model year of the truck. It sure looks nice. Maybe 1955?I like the ‘GMC’ logo on the tailgate. I can see why he chose it.Here is a 1950 GMC truck photographed along Center Street with a similar logo style.

Of course, the show’s real star is my Canon EOS R mirrorless digital camera at an impressive 30.3 megapixels. Canon’s white lenses are legendary for their performance under the most challenging situations and conditions.

After the prolonged heat and humidity of our Florida summer, a break in the weather sent me on a photo walk in the downtown historic district of Fernandina Beach, Florida (Amelia Island). I chose my Canon EOS R with my favorite lens, the Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM, and the Canon EF-RF adapter. I don’t use post-processing except for an occasional crop, as I like to see my digital images as they would have been if I had been shooting with film.

For the most part, the Winter here in Northeast Florida has been mild, especially along the Atlantic coast. No hard freezes, and the plants seem to be taking advantage of the extended daylight and the warmth. My Gerbera daisy has blossomed, and as always, it provides an excellent early bit of color in the garden and a chance to use some of my cameras.
Fujifilm X-T2 with Fujinon XF 18-55mm f2.8-4 R LM OIS zoom lens. Velvia Vivid film simulation.
This first image (top) is as the Fuji captured the flower – no post-processing. The flower overall is sharp, and I like the colors Velvia Vivid produces.
Canon EOS R with Canon RF70-200mm f4 L IS USM zoom lens.
I’ve cropped this second image and added a bit of contrast and saturation in post. The flower is much sharper than the image from the Fuji, but some of that is the size of the sensors. The Fujifilm X-T2 is a crop sensor mirrorless camera, and the Canon is a full-frame mirrorless camera. It’s difficult to say which camera has the “better” lens as both are considered high quality. The Canon lens is more than double the price of the Fujinon, but it’s also a fully weather-sealed professional lens with a longer zoom range. I’ll write more about the differences between the two cameras and why I keep both in my collection. The Canon EOS R has 30.3MP, whereas the Fuji has 24MP, but that’s not enough of a difference since the two cameras are significantly different in their style and function.
