Rural Street Photography in Japan | Fuji X100VI

A special few days of street photography in rural Japan with the Fujifilm X100VI. The sights and villages around Chichibu, Saitama, make for a more calming and colourful POV than usual.

Japan is so nice. Thank you for taking us with you. Would definitely visit it someday. 🙂

Some breathtaking views captured there! I think I need to plan a visit...one of your best yet. Perfect way to start the weekend

Train station at 5:32 has me nostalgic for a place I haven't been. Great video

[@po.ntandshoot]

I appreciate the poetry. Sounds like a setup to an anime.

[@TENTOLIUM]

I sent a DM on Instagram saying welcome to Japan.
I was looking forward to this video being uploaded.
I think you take photos that capture the atmosphere of Japan better than Japanese people.
I look forward to seeing more videos from you

[@po.ntandshoot]

Thank you 🙏🏻 I can't wait to start editing the photos from the other cities.

Got me hungry for a visit now. Been too long. I'm starving.

すごいですね！

[@po.ntandshoot]

Arigato!

[@skipper4114]

I am glad you are enjoying japan. I just left there a month ago. I just returned my X100VI as I preferred my Leica Q3 especially the autofocus. I think I am spoiled with my Leica and Sony A74. I really love the Fuji colours so I may get a Xt5 with the 27mm ( 40mm equil) and believe it or not its lighter after I added the grip and thumb grip to my X100VI. But I also might just get the GrIIIx to go with my Leica. Cheers.

[@po.ntandshoot]

Incredible country, yes. Far too much to edit as a result!
My word, quite the choice of cameras. It's a right of passage that I'll eventually end up with a Leica. Hope that day is soon. Great shout with the 27mm as it often goes unnoticed. It sat so nicely on my X-E3...

[@skipper4114]

@@po.ntandshoot I regret letting my XE4 go. Just found your channel. Keep up the great work.

[@alwaleedfahad]

What is the type of simulation did you used ? And do you use any type of filter while shooting this amazing pictures ?

[@po.ntandshoot]

Thanks for the kind words. No physical filter - I use classic chrome simulation with some additional tweaks in Lightroom

[@konmorse]

Great shots. Were these edited or SOOC?

[@po.ntandshoot]

Cheers! Edited in lightroom using the Classic Chrome simulation.

[@pink-venom388]

Is this a retouched photo?

[@po.ntandshoot]

Yes, I've edited them lightly in Adobe Lightroom

[@SEO_Expert10]

Why aren't your video views increasing? And not reaching people?
The reason is:
1. Your video is not being SEO properly
2. Your video is not reaching the right people
3. Not using video hash tags properly
4. Not sharing the video on social media
There are a few more reasons.
That's why your videos are limited to your channel. Can't get out
In a word, your video is awesome.
Such videos are in great demand.
If you do these things correctly. Hopefully, you will get a lot of visitors.
Feel free to ask me any questions.
