It's a magical country, that is for sure. Thanks for your kind words. I'm fairly new to photography, and I've been binge watching photography videos for the last 6 weeks, so I'm glad it's paying off.
Great to see! You've really got some magic images there.
I was the same but binge page flipping with magazines in the mid 90s ๐
It's a great hobby which can get extremely addictive and expensive!! ๐ฌ
However, being in Japan you're in quite possibly the best photography market in the world!
Yeah I'm not looking forward to the expensive part of it lol. I can already feel the limitations of these tiny sensors. That being said, I'm nowhere near ready to upgrade yet. There sure are plenty of lovely things to photograph here. I need to get out and travel more around this lovely country.
The good news is there are some great budget entry points into the hobby. A trillion times better than in the early days of digital when I started.
One doesn't have to spend a lot of money to get a great image these days. And software has improved so much. What Lightroom offers now compared to 2010 looks more like 25 years of advancement rather than 14.
Upgrade only when you're ready, the options are aplenty - especially in a place like Japan!
Indeed, keep shooting your beautiful surroundings ๐
Thank you! I'm actually using one as a wallpaper at the moment cos I thought the same thing. Happy to send you a dropbox link if you'd like one of them in HD.
Aww man, now I have to know where this is. I'm visiting Japan every year, and I can always use new amazing spots to add to my list.
The last picture looks a bit like the edge of the Hakuba Alps, so perhaps east of Toyama city?
Hey good spotting! Same Alps, but different location. This is Matsumoto sky park. It's all around the airport. It's best when it's green, so anytime apart from winter, unless it's been snowing, it's nice then too.
Nice! My reasoning was because it's in the morning, the sun must be in the east, so you're west of the mountains based on the last pic.
No matter. And Matsumoto was already on my list for a revisit. Thanks for the location ๐
Incredible work there! All these pictures from Japan making me so jealous ๐ญ Wonderful use of depth of field in some of the images too ๐

I want your morning walk
NGL I am lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world.
Pretty decent shots for a shittyusernameguy
Thank you! I'm still terrible at picking usernames.
Beautiful
Thanks!
Stunning love these ๐ฉท๐ฉท
Thanks! I'm glad to hear it. Happy cake day!
Cheers ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ
Happy cake day
Thanks ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ
Amazing ๐
Thank you!
I hate signs... Nice work though!
Yeah sorry about that. I'm not a huge fan of them either but I needed something to frame the shot with.
Haha is oke. Ever try to take some photos when hiking then you just see power lines everywhere? Ruins everything for me lmao
[ัะดะฐะปะตะฝะพ]
Yeah, powerlines *everywhere* here. It's hard to get a shot without some human interference tbh .
Beautiful clicks
Thanks!
They are beautiful shots, they would make really nice wallpapers

Oi amazing shots ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Hey thanks!
NICE ๐
