The Silos (yes, those Silos) Waco, Texas #Photography #StreetPhotography #Fujifilm #FujifilmXE5 #TheSilos #ChipAndJoannaGaines #Magnolia #Waco #Texas #SilentSunday
The Silos, a la Chip and Joanna Gaines. The titular silos dominate the scene, with a play yard out front, where two people kick a ball around. String lights can be seen silhouetted in the the foreground, but it's midday, so they're not lit.

Do Not Block McAlister, Texas #Photography #StreetPhotography #Texas #BlackAndWhitePhotography #bwPhotography #UrbanGaze #Bar #Restaurant
This is a black and white photograph showing two women standing in the doorway of a building. One woman is wearing a patterned dress and facing away from the camera, while the other is wearing a dark top and patterned skirt, facing towards the camera. The doorway appears to be the entrance to a bar or restaurant, with a "112" sign visible above the door. "Do Not Block" appears to the left of the door.

Thank You for Shopping McAlister, Texas #Texas #Antique #bwphotography #BlackAndWhite #Photography #StreetPhotography #Fujifilm #FujifilimXE5
Black and white photo of the inside of an antiques store, taken from a second floor overlook. The store is crowded with items, all cast in shadow. Light comes in from the wall of windows facing the street. A woman stands silhouetted, having just entered and ready to shop.The same store as the previous photo, again backlit from the street windows. Different angle. You can see the outlines of different items, and you can more clearly see the sidewalk outside.

What do you use for the second frame? I like that method of displaying the exif data. Also, great photo!

This is a great example of how color can sometimes lead to an image that’s too busy. The monochrome version here is really fantastic

University Heights Ostrich San Diego, California #SanDiego #California #Photography #Mural #ColorPhotography #Fujifilm #FujifilmXE5 #UrbanGaze
A painting of a mural on a wall in University Heights in San Diego. The mascot for University Heights is the ostrich, for some reason, so the mural depicts an ostrich staring at you, surrounded by very large flowers, and a slated banner that simply reads "University Heights"

Cliff Brown Automotive San Diego, California #Car #California #SanDiego #Photography #Fujifilm #FujifilmXE5 #StreetPhotography #UrbanGaze
An independent auto mechanic shop, across the street from the POV of the camera. It’s a low, white building, looking like something built in the 70s or 80s. A truck is up on a lift, outdoors. Of course it’s outdoors because it’s San Diego. Anywhere else in the country, this would be a terrible idea. The sky is blue with a few small clouds. The back side of a stop sign is in the foreground, and yellow crosswalk stripes are in the lower right of the frame.

I’m eyeing the 35mm Sonnar-style lens of theirs. My X-E5 came with the perfectly serviceable 28mm lens, so the 25mm pancake probably won’t do much for me, but that weird conical 35 manual focus seems fun!

So you’re definitely getting close to your subjects. That’s what I really need to work on practicing. Thanks! And really great work

Rooftop San Diego, California #SanDiego #California #Photography #StreetPhotography #bnwPhotography #Fujifilm #FujifilmXE5
A stark black and white photo of a rooftop bar patio in University Heights, San Diego. You see a modern pergola cutting black lines through a bright sky, with palm trees further in the background, and a standup propane heater in the foreground (because San Deigns are wimps and cannot tolerate even remotely less than perfect temperatures)

What’s your preferred focal length for this kind of street work?

Ryan Hyde @ryanhyde.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Thank you! I don’t shoot with a specific ratio in mind. These are all crops I make after the fact. Helps to shoot on an ultra-wide lens with a 40mp sensor! Most of the stuff I post is 4:3, even though my sensor is ASP-C. I just think that format works well on phone screens.

Lone House San Diego, California #SanDiego #California #SilentSunday #Photography #UrbanGaze #Fujifilm #FujifilmXE5
A house perched on the edge of a canyon. In reality, there are other houses near it, and it overlooks a busy commercial area. But in the photo, it appears alone, partnered with a tall palm tree.

View from a the end of a dead end rode in University Heights. You see a canyon with southwestern style brush, emptying out into a highway and the roofs of shopping plazas in the middle distance. The sun sets off camera left, throwing soft golden light onto the scene.

An old school pizza parlor sign reading "Sonny's Pizza." It's ringed in lights, like an old movie marquis sign. "Sonny's" is in red neon lights in a script font, and "Pizza' is underneath in yellow neon.

Dog owners look on, while the waves roll onto the beach from the right.A black and white spotted Great Dane runs with gusto into the frame. He's being intercepted by another dog between him and the camera (no idea what breed) and a sorta Westie looking dog coming in from the left. The waves roll in behind the Dane.

In the foreground, and slightly out of focus, is a pool table. On the right side of the frame is a large Harlan logo (a stylized 'H') in the gift shop.

Well, I can’t recommend the x-e5 highly enough, but it is stupid expensive. It’s currently my only camera though, and that’s probably not going to change. I’m optimizing for compactness so I always have what I want with me.

photo taken from a walkway in Petco Park, home of the San Diego Padres. Two women are in the foreground, their backs to the camera. One is wearing a Tatis Jr jersey.
