2014 Tuckfest held at the U.S. National Whitewater Center in Charlotte, NC on April 26, 2014. (Fujifilm X-T1, XF10-24)
Every year the U.S. National Whitewater Center hosts an event called Tuckfest and I decided I wanted to check it out after hearing from several students about it. I was hobbled after surgery, so I wasn’t as mobile as I like, but had a blast checking out the vendors and events.
In this post are some of the pictures I took on Saturday. All were shot with my FujiFilm x-T1 and two lenses, the XF 18-55/2.8-4 and the XF 10-24/4 I have enjoyed using my Fuji cameras and feel like I can travel “light” versus carrying my DSLR. I love the ability to capture events and do it more discretely than with my “pro” equipment.
