Portrait of my Daughter

by Jay Mason-Burns

Fujifilm X-T20, 25mm, 1/125sec at f/1.8, ISO 320. Shot in raw, converted
in camera to Fujifilm Acros Red film sim with strong grain

‘I am a street photographer

from south Birmingham. I shoot

with Fuji, which I enjoy because

it allows me to use vintage and

budget lenses, such as the £

Neewer 25mm prime that I got

for Christmas. This is my

daughter Isobel shot in our

local park.’ Jay uploaded this to

Twitter using #appicoftheweek.
