    Hi Faizal, its so nice to see my home town being so well portrayed by you.
    It is a beautiful, enjoyable and safe city to visit. You have fun and please keep posting!
    By the way, Portugal is not just Lisboa, if you can go visit Sintra (metropolitan area of Lisbon) or catch a bus to Évora (1h30m trip) in Alentejo (different region) to see something different but still amazing.
    All the best to you

      @@FaizalWestcott you are more than welcome, I truly appreciate that my city and country are being discovered in a photographic way. Altough a small country compared to the US, the diversity of scenery as you travel around is huge.
      Every city is completly different, and if you have the chance in the future I would most defintly recomend you to go visit Porto, our second biggest city and you would get the contrast between our major cities.
      All the best to you, and please let us know when you are back in Lisbon.

    Having just come back from Lisbon I loved this POV and "re-seeing" the city through your eyes and camera. Well done Faizal! I agree that there's plenty of texture in the city, the architecture is so ornate and it's very different than most American cities

    Lisbon have these warm colors because of the topography of its hills, that create a dramatic contrast of light, and reflects warm tones all around.
    Being a Lisbon born and raised, I recently have been losing my love and emotion for my city given the recent massive and destructive tourism that have changed so much of the city. Much of its unique beauty it is lost.
    Still, I enjoyed a lot “walking with” your camera by the familiar streets and to (re)learn how to notice the beauty of this city again. Thank you for this portrait.

I live Hawai’i Island … so no cities … but watching lots of videos about the IIIx has given me lots of non-touristy pic ideas! Mahalo for a lovely Lisbon stroll … love the old Spanish Portagese ways of creating cities .. so created for real humans with heart & soul!

Don’t get me wrong, I love my city but I’m used to it.

    greetings from france. I'm a Fuji photographer who made the mistake of selling his Fuji X100F 3 years ago and today obviously can't find a Fuji X100V available in stores... Looking at your report, I guess you would recommend the GR3X as a credible alternative, even if it's obviously not the same type of camera in the end. However, this little Ricoh seems to have many arguments in its favor for street photography ....

Keep it up!!

    • @FaizalWestcott
      @FaizalWestcott  Рік тому +21

      I get what you're saying. I'm defintely not good at explaining exactly what I'm seeing in the moment to the camera, which sort of why I prefer to do a voice over after instead of this format of talking to the gorpro. As for the reflections, it's kind of a big part of my style and approach to street so I wouldn't say it's "overuse". You wouldn't say a photographer who always has high contrast shadows in all of their photos that they're overusing shadows, right?

      Reflections is Faizals style! Honestly I think he’s the first street photographer I follow that made me even think to use reflections too. Isn’t that kind of what photographers strive for? A style they can be known for. There a million and one people with a GRiii and doing street photography. I think Faizal should never stop doing reflections. It’s almost brought you recognition because of this style.

I'm in a dilemma about which Ricoh to buy, GR III or GR IIIx, I'm afraid that the 40mm will be too narrow for documenting my travels, except for street photography. Greetings from Croatia!

    Dude I love your videos. They've inspired me to start doing some photography of my own. I recently bought a Canon m200 just for my first ever camera. But I just can't get to the point of actually shooting PEOPLE. I don't know what it is but when I bring the camera up to my face I suddenly feel the gaze of everyone around me like I just made eye contact with the whole block. How is it that I feel more exposed behind the lens? How do you deal with that? Or is it just experience?

    • @FaizalWestcott
      @FaizalWestcott  Рік тому +3

      I know what you mean! You overcome that through experience, but there are some ways to work around it like the popular fishing technique. So instead of seeing a person and photographing them, you pick out a scene, frame up your camera, and allow people to pass through the photo youve already set up. You wont raise any attention to yourself because you've already raised up your camera! People will also not think you're photographing them
