I just uploaded a brand-new video to YouTube. Some of you are probably unaware that there even is a Fuji X Weekly YouTube channel because I post so infrequently to it. This is only my second long-form video this year; last year I had two, and the year before that I uploaded three. Still, somehow, the channel has nearly 18,000 subscribers, and most of my videos top 10,000 views. I’d love to create a lot more long-form video content in the future, but it takes a lot of time that is just so hard to come by right now.

This video was filmed a few months ago. Initially I felt bad that it took so long to get it put together and finished, but then Preston Summorrow posted a video a week or so ago that was filmed back in July. If it was alright for him to have a large gap between start and finish, then it’s alright for me, too. I hope that you enjoy my video—I included it below.

I love infrared photography! It is so much fun. The results are just incredible. I have a handful of Infrared Film Simulation Recipes, and my personal favorite is Aerochrome v2. If you are interested in infrared photography, be sure to check back often to follow my personal journey. I know this is a niche genre that most people have a passing interest in at most, but even if you don’t care to try it yourself (or don’t have the opportunity to try it), maybe you’ll enjoy the photographs nonetheless.

My wife, Amanda, is the one who filmed and edited the video. She’s a lot better at it than I am, and she enjoys the process a lot more than I do. I think she did a great job! If you appreciate the video, be sure to leave a nice comment for Amanda. I know she would be encouraged by your gracious feedback.
