“Photography First: X-T5“ Fujifilm Global
Collaborating with CEPA Gallery in Buffalo, New York to give one aspiring photographer the opportunity of a life time, X Photographer Karen Hutton will take Hope to Zion National Park for the ultimate photowalk with X-T5.
“On The Creative Path”: Fujifilm Global
This project struck my soul like no other! Fujifilm collaborated with CEPA Gallery in Buffalo, New York to give Hope Grunert the opportunity of a life time. As my mentee, we explored Zion National Park, taking the ultimate photowalk, with full hearts and the Fujifilm X-T5. The film we made; “Photography First” says it all.
The artist’s road is paved by opportunities to learn. Through attempts and failures, isolated studies, and fateful revelations, they come in many forms. Often, the very best are delivered by mentors, knowledgeable and astute from their own decades of dedicated learning. The right advice can resonate so strongly that it shapes any endeavor to follow.
It seems an impossible task to contain the limitless beauty of nature to a single point of view. What’s a moth to a mountain range? The two cannot be compared, yet both demand to be seen in a scale worthy of their magnificence. While boundless potential can be taken from virtually any lens in the hands of the right creator, some things have simply been off limits by design.
FILM & ARTICLE: “Painting with a Master’s Brush”
Karen Hutton revels in FUJIFILM X-T5’s stunning resolution as she turns nature into art.
At 122,160,280 acre feet, the Jewel of the Sierra flows through muted alpine plains, carrying with it a tale of two million years – reflected and rippled in tepid freshwater currents. Shaped throughout bitter ice ages, Lake Tahoe’s azure streams absorb the flushed varieties of west-coast sunlight, shimmering across a surface that seems to join sky and sea as one.
“Greatest American Road Trip”: Fujifilm Global
A project for Fujifilm that I’m mighty proud of. Welcome to my first visit to Zion National Park; an epic tale, told through the eyes of a single Macro lens. Fujifilm Global article/film here.
“Greatest American Road Trip”: Fujifilm North America
Seeing Zion National Park for the very first time – equipped solely with the Fujifilm GFX100s and GF120mm Macro lens, challenged me mightily… and shifted my perception forever.

I’m a paper freak. I love prints; I think they are vision made manifest. I love handling gorgeous fine art papers of all kinds. Consequently, it was a huge honor to be chosen by Fujifilm Global for their glorious Fine Art Calendar. Genre: Intimate Landscapes, from my personal collection. Printed on Fujicolor Crystal Archive Digital Pearl Paper. SWOON!

INTERVIEW WITH FREDERICK VAN JOHNSON ON THIS WEEK IN PHOTO
For me, Macro Photography is filmic; the ultimate character study. It’s a way seeing, thinking, being. Macro Photography also offers a beautiful way of creating art, telling a story and seeing the grand design in everyday life. I discuss all this and more with Frederick on this episode of TWiP!
