Fu River Reflections: A Photo Essay with the Lumix GM1

Following our enriching visit to the Tangxianzu Memorial Museum, we embarked on a leisurely walk along the scenic Fu River, an experience that culminated in my capturing a series of photographs that, in my estimation, perfectly encapsulate the essential charm and character of the Fuzhou cityscape. The expanse of the sky above was a brilliant, unblemished blue, providing a striking backdrop against which a multitude of soft, white clouds drifted lazily, their varied shapes adding depth and texture to the picturesque vista. These visual impressions were preserved through the lens of my trusty Lumix GM1 camera, paired with the exceptional clarity and shallow depth of field offered by my Lumix 20mm F1.7 prime lens, a combination that consistently delivers the image quality I seek.
