I do not buy much new equipment these days—the stuff I have is good enough for 
my needs, whether we are talking computers or tablets/phones or photo 
equipment. I do buy occasional bits and pieces related to my cycling, 
especially things that wear out, like clothes. But this week I bought my first 
piece of photo kit in at least year, a 50-230mm zoom for my Fuji. I am going to 
Romania next week, my first visit to that country, and I wanted to travel 
light. This means the Fuji X-E2 with two zooms—the 18-55mm I already had, the 
new 50-230mm, and an f2/23mm lens for low light situations.

The new zoom arrived yesterday at my office, so on my way home I stopped at the 
central beach of Alicante to do some lens testing, in the way I normally test 
lenses—just by taking pictures. I think the result is quite satisfactory, and I 
look forward to walking around Bucharest with a light camera bag next week. 
Here are five images from Playa de Postiguet.

There was a group of kiters and surfers, but it was the end of the day so they 
were winding down:

The part of the beach closest to the centre, with the hotel where I spent my 
very first night in Alicante, when I was here for my job interview in the 
summer of 2007:
