From Travel Bliss to Lockdown

Photo Essay

We have all been affected by the situation. Getting used to a new reality. Temporary we say. One week, one month at a time.

The current situation has fully cemented how incredibly fortunate we are to have traveled as much as we have. We completed our multi-year travel project just days before the lockdown.

On Saturday morning, I grabbed the camera and went for a bike ride around Vancouver. It was one of the most surreal experiences I have had doing street photography. I had an eerie feeling in my stomach and yet also caught myself enjoying a calm and quiet city on the first real day of spring.

The photos in the post are made with a Fujifilm X-Pro2, XF 35mm f/1.4 R, and XF 23mm f/1.4 R lenses. For the black-and-white image conversion, I used the Fujifilm Acros film simulation.
