Sights and sounds from a time and place.
I am a photographer and videographer, currently based in Japan but frequently on the move. I love walking, hiking, and exploring in general. I film extended atmospheric walks in mountain villages, beautiful natural areas, and bustling cities - all without commentary, just atmosphere.
I'm happy to be able to share these little adventures with you, give an immersive glimpse into another world, or just provide a bit of relaxing background ambiance. Let's see what's out there.

We start this sunset walk on the hilltop Ojiyama Makekirai Inari Shrine overlooking the small town of Tamba-Sasayama in Hyogo, Japan. The stairs leading down to the historic Kawaramachi merchant housing district are lined with traditional red tori gates. As I was walking down, the music played from speakers along the path stopped and monks at the shrine began to drum and chant. The chanting con...

Walking Natural Stone Route to Small River Temple | Nezame Gorge - Nagano, Japan 4K
Переглядів 4,8 тис.День тому
Nezame-no-toko Gorge is a collection of unique rocks along the Kiso River in Nagano, Japan. I stopped here early in the morning, unsure what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised to see such a stunning rock formation, a small shrine, and some unique rock art pieces along the river. I started walking a little after sunrise in the forest near the river. I found the trail didn't last too long by...

Narai-juku is one of many post towns on the Old Nakasendo walking highway.

Autumn Walk along River and Woods in Japanese Alps | Kamikochi, Japan 4K
Переглядів 7 тис.14 днів тому
Kamikochi is a part of Chubu Sangaku National Park in Nagano, Japan. I spent the night at Konashidaira Campground to wake up early and walk the more popular paths in relative quiet. In late October the fall foliage is out in some places, and we are treated to an early monkey sighting by Kappa Bridge before heading out on the trail. As this was my first time to Kamikochi I wasn't sure what to ex...
Short Walk around Small Pond in the Japanese Countryside | Kiso, Japan 4K
Переглядів 1,4 тис.21 день тому
I saw this beautiful little pond on the side of the road somewhere between Gifu and Nagano and I stopped off to stretch my legs and enjoy the autumn scenery. The fall colors on the path around the pond were so nice I decided to go back and get my camera to film a short little walk. *Subscribe* for more immersive walking adventures in Japan and beyond: bit.ly/3IO4oxS Playlists Dawn Walks ua-cam....
Early Evening Walk in Vibrant Sakae City | Nagoya, Japan 4K
Переглядів 1,4 тис.21 день тому
I spent the night in Nagoya on my way to Gifu and thought it would be a good chance to walk through the city as sunset became early evening. The Sakae area is a popular nightlife and shopping zone and it made for an interesting walk with its modern architecture and city atmosphere. We start at Oasis 21, the unique shopping center with a glass water roof and view of Mirai Tower. From there we cr...
Evening Walk in Small Farming Village | Kayabuki no Sato - Miyama, Japan 4K
Переглядів 14 тис.21 день тому
Kayabuki no Sato is a beautiful little village in Kyoto Prefecture known for its traditional thatched roof houses and idyllic rural setting. It can be crowded with tourists during the day, but in the evening it is a bit more quiet. On this evening there was a full moon rising just after sunset and I thought it would be a good chance to walk the village at night with the glow of the house lights...
Rainy Walk in Deserted Logging Village | Kyoto, Japan 4K
Переглядів 7 тис.Місяць тому
This old logging village in Kyoto Prefecture is unique with its large wooden storehouses and traditional Japanese homes along a river through the mountains. This afternoon the rain came in just as I was starting to walk on the forested road above the village. It is very quiet, and it seems that many of the buildings are abandoned. At one time this would have been a center of woodcrafts, and the...

Elk Call in Fog on Morning Walk to Beach via Pierce Point Ranch | Point Reyes, California 4K
Переглядів 2,7 тис.Місяць тому
This is a walk from my visit to Northern California last summer. The Historic buildings at Pierce Point Ranch make for an interesting backdrop as herds of elk call out in the fog. From the ranch I walked down the trail to McClures Beach. There were plenty of sea birds on the beach and flying low over the surf. It was low tide so mussels, starfish, and other sea life were exposed below the water...
Sunset Walk from Hilltop to Waterfront via Senkoji Temple and Cat Alley | Onomichi, Japan 4K
Переглядів 3,9 тис.Місяць тому
I walked to up the hill to Senkoji Park to walk back down as the sun set over Onomichi. It is a popular walking route, underneath the ropeway, which had just closed for the day so there weren't many people at the temple or even in the famous Cat Alley. There weren't many cats in the alley either, unfortunately. There were plenty of mosquitos to make up for the lack of cats though. Down on the w...
Blue Hour Morning Walk on Quiet Streets in Historic Town | Takehara, Japan 4K Dawn
Переглядів 6 тис.Місяць тому
Takehara is a nice little town in Hiroshima Prefecture with some beautifully restored traditional buildings on narrow streets of the old merchant quarter. I woke up before dawn to walk the streets in the quiet morning blue hour. I was hoping to find a path through the bamboo forest behind Saihoji Temple so there's a bit of aimless wandering at the end, but alas I couldn't find the trail. Consul...
Walking Quiet Alleys along Temple Path at Dawn | Onomichi, Japan 4K
Переглядів 5 тис.Місяць тому
I was passing through Onomichi and thought it would be nice to wake up early and try the famous Temple Walk at dawn. I took a look at the map beforehand, but I probably could have followed the route a bit more closely. The battery ran low so I wasn't able to complete the full temple walk and I decided to head down to the coast with the last bit of juice in the camera. I hope you enjoy the morni...
