What impressed me the most about all of your images was the feeling of isolation and loneliness I get from looking at paintings by Edward Hopper. Beautifully captured in the right place at the right time.
Outstanding work, those pictures gave me the chill ! Seoul is my favorite city in the world for night street photography, no other place on earth can give you the same vibe
That Ricoh camera looks fast focusing in such difficult conditions. Really great tip about staying in one place trying to optimize all the possibilities it offers, instead of not stopping walking and trying to explore every corner of the city. Unfortunately, for those who have little time to visit a city, if you are in one place for a long time, you have the feeling that you are wasting your time instead of continuing to discover the city. And of course, you should make a video about your story and the pros and cons about your lifestyle and where you pay your taxes (lol!) and all that stuff.
I've had problems with autofocus in the past but on this shoot it was working great actually. Even with limited time there's a difference between shooting a spot for 5 mins vs 25 mins. I don't always stay super long, but photography wise it still makes sense to just focus properly on a few spots than to run around ticking off the obvious tourist shots that have been done to death by locals and tourists alike or trying to scramble everywhere. I've done both and patience always wins out.
Hi Teemu, I would be interested in how do you deal with the logistics when you move from one country to another. The camera equipments, big screen, gamer chair, microphone, other gears, clothes etc. Maybe include it in a future episode?
I was just about to ask in the comments how do you get glowing highlights without a promist and seconds later you mentioned the pollution. Damn I am suprised how much it effects the image event at night and after the rain..
@@teemu.mp4 Might sound dumb, sorry im very new to photography. If you shot this raw on another camera like sony or fuji. Would it yield the same result upon editing in lightroom or such? Or does each camera give different raw images. I'm considering buying a fuji as my first camera but I love the compactness of ricoh. Can a raw ricoh image look like a fuji film sim jpeg shot?
@@min10596 I would say yes you can edit a raw to look very close to a processed jpeg once you know what you're doing on lightroom. The main benefit of fujifilm profiles is speed and convenience, meaning the editing is just done in-camera instead of later on LR. If your intention is to edit all images anyway, there won't be that much of a difference.
@@teemu.mp4 Ohh I see! I always thought the processed jpegs were like a special "fuji effect" that no other camera has rather than convenience. Thank you so much! I was really torn between an X100V and a Sony RXVII, really wanted the sony due to its compactness and zooming. But the fuji colors were kind of telling me to go for the x100v.
@@min10596 well its kind of right in the sense that fuji has great colors if you dont edit your photos much. But as soon as you edit raws it matters much less. I'd choose a camera based on other factors first like lens, form factor, etc. But it all depends.
You should use a jacket with hood. Umbrella is mainly for camera and you don't get reporter as hooded weirdo with camera. The hood so your head isn't drenched by sudden umbrella accident

That's a big compliment, love Hopper. Thank you!
4:27 is brilliant, waiting for the bus to come by for the backlighting! learned! Thank you mate!
I ordered my GR3x yesterday. Can't wait to roam around the streets of Seoul with this awesome toy.
Would love to hear more about life as a digital nomad--how you got into it, etc.
Ricoh processing just does something special for night time photography, really great video and I need to replace my Canon G9X Mark 2 with a Richo 3
I would love to hear your digital nomad story!
Outstanding work, those pictures gave me the chill ! Seoul is my favorite city in the world for night street photography, no other place on earth can give you the same vibe
Yess love Seoul
I enjoyed this video, thx for your hard work! May I ask what is this nice background music you put in this video? I love it

Absolutely amazed by your POV of this city. Definitely need to add it to my bucket list. But I want to visit Tokyo first.
Tokyo is even better. But they've been closed forever. Hoping for a return this year.
Loved this video. Your images are amazing and always inspire me to get out and take some of my own ❤️
So glad to hear that :)
Very bladerunner. Was there a recipe/setting you used to prep the look prior to shooting?
Great video! loved my time in Korea, wish I would have been out shooting more.
Thank you!
very nice, I lived in Seoul for a while. Miss it a lot.
Seoul is the best!
Big fan of your work. Big inspiration and love the vibe. Keep it up!
Thanks Michael
Sick photos. Give me Gotham City vibes
if i ever buy a Ricoh , it s because of your photos here : D very nice !
hope ricoh sees this and sponsors me :) haha jk thank you
@@teemu.mp4 i hope they do !

Sure I'll include it! But the short answer is any actual furniture and monitor is just short term rental stuff I don't bring most of it.
cool video, made me wonder why you won't mount 360 camera on the handle of the umbrella?
Actually I thought about it, I just haven't come up with a mount yet, they don't exactly sell umbrella mounts
I was just about to ask in the comments how do you get glowing highlights without a promist and seconds later you mentioned the pollution. Damn I am suprised how much it effects the image event at night and after the rain..
Yeah it was quite thick pollution, almost fog-like
Great video! Tell me, after processing photos in Lightroom - do you do AutoContrast in Photoshop, to raise the brightness and contrast?
Nope, only time I might ever do that is for youtube thumbnails
@@teemu.mp4Thanks
6:53 атмосферно ☁
Nice work 👏
Cheers!
6:10 & 7:04 pray for the umbrella 😂
I've had this umbrella since 2018, it cost $20 but still never breaks!
@@teemu.mp4 I was joking about it bc of the movements 😂
After watching your clip I almost grab my camera and go out to take pictures. In Thailand, it rains 6 months a year. Thanks
Careful with the thai rain, there are so many roaches 😂
@@teemu.mp4 Yes, Ha ha ha
did you shoot jpeg here or raw? these photos are stunning!
Thank you. I never shoot jpeg, always raw.

dude, is your camera still alive? It's not weather sealed as far as i know!
what is the recipe
You should use a jacket with hood. Umbrella is mainly for camera and you don't get reporter as hooded weirdo with camera. The hood so your head isn't drenched by sudden umbrella accident
You're right but I just didn't own one at the time lol
ok
Ok
