Hello! Been a fan for a couple months now, I love this style of video. Keep up the beautiful work! One piece of minor criticism is that think having music without lyrics really would improve the vibe of these videos. I love your channel!
Thank you for your comment 😊 Also, thank you for always watching my videos 😁 Regarding the criticism about the music, I will try to think of the best solution 👍 Please continue to support this channel 🙇♀️
Looks like a great area for street photography, hardly any tourists... thanks for sharing! I'll be taking a photo trip to Taiwan next January...is this Shennong St relatively safe at night to wander around alone?
Thank you for your comment 😊 I didn't feel particularly unsafe when I went to this tourist spot. It seems that the lanterns are lit at night and the townscape is beautiful. So I think it's relatively safe to go out at night 👍 Well, this was my first time traveling to Taiwan, so I don't know much about the security situation there...💦
I just found your youtube channel and I love your videos and photos! I was wondering about your XF-16-55mmF2.8 lens. I'm thinking about buying it, but I heard it is very big and heavy, what are your experiences with the lens? Thank you 🙏
Thank you for your comment 😊 I'm so happy that you found my video and liked it 😆 Regarding the XF16-55mm lens, the depiction and texture of the photos are overwhelmingly top-notch! It can achieve images that cannot be expressed with other lenses. However, it is still heavy. After about an hour of photo walk, my arms get really tired. If you want a lighter and smaller lens, you might want to consider a third-party lens! For example, a SIGMA lens. There are many lenses on the market that have a good texture and high image quality🙂
you leave the photos on screen too long when doing explanations and history etc. kills the vibe. want to watch you walk around. if want to start at photos we got instagram. when you flash up the actual photos you took that's fine.
Thank you for your comment 😊 I see! I didn't really care about that until now, but even if I put a photo in the description, it's pointless if it ruins the atmosphere of the video! I'll use it as a reference for future video production 😊
@@freedom-man.photographer videos are very soothing and interesting to watch. learning about history stuff and points of interest is ok but maybe doesn't need to be up on screen? maybe use a quick slideshow of the photos taken as a transition when moving from area to area? keeps audience engaged and focused. up to you! not my channel!! haha ;)
Taipei is one of my favorite cities for street photography! I also managed to take some nice photos too from my recent trip in Taiwan! I miss Taipei. Great video!
Thank you for your comment. You can see the beautiful autumn leaves from mid- to late November every year. However, the time when you can see the autumn leaves varies slightly every year, so if you are visiting Japan to see the autumn leaves, it is better to check the exact time in advance✌️
Thank you for your comment 😊 I basically set the white balance to automatic. In my case, after shooting in RAW, I edit the colors thoroughly in Lightroom. By the way, the film simulations I often use are as follows 😄 ◉Classic Negative ◉Classic Chrome ◉Bleach Bypass
I think your channel is under rated. You have amazing skills in street photography. Are these straight out of camera? Do you mind to share your recipe? Thanks a lot.
Thank you for your comment (*^_^*) I will continue to work hard to grow my channel and have many people around the world see my photos v(´∀｀*v) These photos were taken with a camera called "Fujifilm X-T4". The details of the camera used are listed in the video description, so please read it if you like (*^_^*) I also basically use a software called "Lightroom" to edit my photos. If you have any other detailed questions, please feel free to ask me in the comments (・∀・)
Hello from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺 I love your videos you have a very good eye for photography. At the moment I am trying to choose what prime focal length I should buy for my next trip to Japan, so I REALLY appreciate how you put the focal length on each shot Thank you🙏🙏
Thank you for your comment 😊 I'm really happy that you enjoyed watching my video ☺️ Choosing a lens is a really difficult choice! There are so many great lenses on the market from various manufacturers that I always have a hard time deciding lol.
I took the photo just as the sun was rising, so it must have been around 6am☀️This spot is a very popular tourist spot, and there are a lot of tourists during the day, so it seems like it's hard to walk💦
Thank you for your comment. 😊 I'm really happy to receive such praise. ☺️ The spots introduced in this video are personally some of my favorite tourist spots in Taiwan. 😄 I'm happy to be able to introduce such wonderful spots to my viewers✨.
Thank you for your comment 😊 I think there are many viewers who are looking forward to the photo walk video in Japan, so I am currently working hard on creating a video 😀 Please wait a little while until the photo walk video in Japan is uploaded 😊👍
Thank you for your comment (*^_^*) It's true that airfares have become a lot more expensive now than they used to be💦 Japan is not that far from Taiwan, so you can get a relatively cheap flight. But, for example, if you go from Japan to America or Japan to Europe, it's about 1.5 times more expensive than it used to be (T_T)
What a great project. I like that you put themes together for your projects. It adds greatly to the appreciation. You capture some great shots to convey the energy of a place. Very well made.
Thank you for your comment (*^_^*) I'm so happy to receive such a nice compliment U^ｪ^U The shooting location this time is Powerful & Artistic🎨 Personally, it's one of my top three favorite tourist spots in Taiwan (・∀・)
Thank you for your comment (#^.^#) I understand the color guide in the photo📸 I'll try to think about how I can effectively communicate the color to the viewers (*^_^*)
Thank you so much for the wonderful compliment (#^.^#) I personally have a strong preference for color adjustments, so I'm really happy to receive a compliment on the colors in my photos (*^^*)
What a great video! Look at all those cats. While I'm not a cat lover by default, I really like that there's a whole village devoted to them. What a great project to capture all of them like that.
Thank you for your comment 😊 It's no exaggeration to say that this is a village made for cats, it's a spot filled with cats 😸 Next time, I'd like to go and take pictures of various animals, not just cats 😚📸
New subscriber! This is a great video. I really felt like I got to look around. Love your edits, too. You really have great descriptions in the post, too.
Thank you for your comment. I am very happy to receive such praise😆 I will continue to do my best to post on RU-vid, so please continue to support this channel😄👍
Thank you for your comment😁. I basically use film simulations for photo editing. Examples of film simulations I often use are as follows: •Classic Nega •Classic Chrome •Bleach Bypass
This place is really a very nice place😍Thank you again for complimenting the colors in my photo, I'm really happy😆✌️Please continue to support this channel🤗
The whole video has a deep element of mindfulness about it - photos are excellent if you had a photobook I would most likely put in an order for one - I do enjoy the tones of the photos and the framing - it is very well done and again has a real peaceful vibe.
Thank you for your comment. I'm so happy to receive such a great compliment😁 At the moment, I am not selling photobooks or anything like that. In the future, I would like to continue working seriously on RU-vid until I can sell my own photobooks📷 Please continue to support this channel😊👍
Thank you for your comment. I use film simulation! Then I adjust the shadows, highlights, and peripheral light in Lightroom. Adjusting in Lightroom is the key to developing photos that look like film📷 For now, the easiest way to create a film-like photo is to adjust the Lightroom highlight and shadow adjustment graph so that it becomes an "S" shape. Then, add green to the shadows. With this, I think you can create a film-like photo for now😃
I rented a camera when I was in Japan last month. Now I am back to Philippines and I just recently bought XT-4. Your photos are great! I will wait for more content!
Thank you for your comment and congratulations on your purchase of the x-t4. I will continue to create video content that viewers can enjoy. Please continue to support this channel.
