In the intro, that shot of the guy's reflection in the moving train, was beautiful. Just wanted to share my appreciation before watching the rest of the video. Thanks
I think this is a very insightful application. It is less about finding a visual aesthetic, and more about getting to the root of why we take photos. I think that this mindset is crucial for growth as a photographer, or just a creative person in general. To get to the source of why you, the artist, are driven to create in the first place, without seeking external validation. It seems that it should not be obvious to the outsider that someone is practicing "zen photography". The practitioner is the one who benefits not by their photos, but by their personal discovery.
Thank you very much for this sir. I am from Nigeria and i admire your creative works. I feel encourage to shoot more pictures anytime i watch your videos.
The human beauty inside yourself comes flooding out in this, your art. And it brings me much joy. Thank you. I've been seeking Zen for most of my long life, and this documentation of it is the best I have ever seen, Eugen Herrigel and Alan Watts notwithstanding. If I have found any contentment in photography, it is in the happiness my own works give me, what you might suggest is the merit. You are a treasure.
Your channel is unique, a completely different perspective on photography. I think a lot of us needed this to start enjoying taking pictures again, without the constant pursuit of better equipment, more likes, etc. You're doing a great job, thanks.
Congratulations to you with sharing yet another wonderful video with lots of stuff to think about. I am together with my wife for the very first time in Japan right now. Whatever we see here is beautiful. The people we love most. What a wonderful cultural rich country ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Thank you very much for such a wonderful insight to Zen. That short video has given me inspiration to learn more about why I take photos and to look deeper into myself.
I love your essays and how they encourage me to see the world as beautiful in a way that can't be taken from me. Thanks for you putting in the effort to make these videos. Much appreciated.
❤❤❤❤ Woooowwww Toshiki Me encanta!!!!! Gives me so much peace, and the images, the story… i think this is the best video for me to start! Me encanta what are you explaining and talking about!!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lots to Consider here 👍 Still left Me wanting a little more of Japanese Zen cultural approach🤔 There are So many strands to consider!. Is this just like Breathing?
I really appreciate your videos, they have helped me think and reflect. I have been able to verify that, despite being a clumsy result of Western culture, many of my "intuitions" were not far from your points. However, the road is still long. I like to spend these good moments with you and it gives me great pleasure to hear the caw of a crow, it is a bird that I love for its mysterious intelligence. Thank you so much.
