I took this image just down the road from the house where we're staying. I shot it because the day before I had shot the image below with a brand new Fujifilm X-T4 that I was <a href="https://www.wired.com/author/scott-gilbertson/" rel="me">testing for Wired</a> ([read my review](https://www.wired.com/review/fujifilm-x-t4/)).

I love the X-T4's in-camera Acros black and white setting, but you know what I like even more? The camera I already own. I shot the top image to remind myself why: I can already make great images, no need to buy anything new. Thanks to the wonderful open source app [Darktable](https://darktable.org/), I am able to replicate the look and feel of the X-T4 using what I already have.

And any time I can quell a little consumer desire without spending money, I won't lie, I get a little excited. Like the old saying goies, use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.
