Yes, it is Fuji - this set is either the Fuji X100S or Fuji XE-1 with the 56mm f1.2 lens. I am increasingly finding this to be a very convenient and lightweight combo to tote around during travel and street photography, giving a effective, fast 35mm and 85mm reach. I think colour is everywhere, you just have to look for it - my view is that coming from India, visualizing in colour is second nature to me, and I am not at all convinced about the fashionable notion of the perceived superiority of B&W. I just think they are two equally valid approaches to photography, and you choose whichever suits you. Remember, colour is the natural approach, as we humans see the world around us, and B&W the artificial, doctored one! In Beijing, we were staying in the Central Business District, which is the very westernized part of town. The traffic was heavy, but not appreciably more so than any metropolis that I know of. The real downer is the almost perpetual smog, which makes everything look gloomy and dreary.all the time. I really wonder how people live there - it must be so depressing.
