I like Lisbon, good climate, sunshine and nice place to live. I have been here for 40 years.
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
Thanks Andre! We were mostly in Lisbon during the two weeks but we did manage to go to Sintra for a day! That was a very beautiful place
@@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.
I would add Porto to the list. Come visit the north of the country, you won't be disappointed :)
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 am in Portugal right now for vacation. Lisbon, Sintra, Belem, Coimbra, Nazarè, Porto, the Ocean and its cliffs… this Country is splendent. A true joy for street photography and photography in general. And man… Pastel De Nata is like a drug! 😂
There's a freshness and originality to your compositions that I love. I really noticed it when you were trying to photograph the wall in a new way and used the reflections on the car hood. That was so cool.
Appreciate your Video! I’m right here in Lisboa and enjoy my GR iiix urban also in these beautiful streets of Lissabon
Faisal....love watching your videos...its like a calm break in the middle of a long work day.
Your videos bring me so much joy,
I am glad that I also started my own channel.
I really like how you tell a story with your videos ✌️
Every time happy to see when a new upload is in my feed
Loved the comment "the city is so hilly". Lisbon actually has the nickname of "city of the 7 hills". Glad you liked the city and the video is really nice.
Europe is a gem to shoot street photography!
I see a photo at 5:50 The 11:30 shot is great, a crop down of just the right third - awesome. At 12:33 nice. At 11:44 the patterns are very nice. Lisbon looks as though there is much to see of beauty and people enjoying the day. Take care, Loren
Congrats! Thanks for sharing our beautiful LISBOA.
Loved to see how you framed the photo and told the story!
Watching your videos makes me feel so calm and at ease
I just love your photos of Lisboa! I hope you enjoyed your Peshtel de Nata! I've been living in Porto for 2 years now and you gave me plenty of new ideas for my photos! Thank you 😍😘
Peshtel? 🤣😁😁
Awesome Video! Love your creative way of seeing photos. THE POV video is always a great way of feeling like we're there with you. Thanks again!
It's nice to see someone portray Portugal so nicely!
I was there a while back with my fuji too, must've missed you! 😆
I've always loved Lisbon lemons. They're yellow too. Not sure if that has anything to do the color of the houses, streets etc, but there you go!
Watched this while having breakfast and I was so immersed. Thanks for taking us along!
Love this - I have visited Lisbon multiple times and love the chill vibes for street photography…. The pov video is great to point all of us to new places to shoot.
Holy moly... that's one beautiful city
Great vid as always my man, saw a lot of spots I hit up when living in Lisbon. Can’t wait to get back out there for some street photography sessions
LOVE how you did this photo walk comparison! I just ordered my first GR … and IIIx … it’s on the way! Despite a few of it’s short comings (what camera does not have?) … I am so excited. 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!
I dont come here to see cliche pictures. This is why you’re different and one of the best in YT: 9:12
immediately hit the subscribe button after the "stay"
Lovely streets of Lisaboa. Wonderful alleyways to wander up. Love also pastel de nata.
Beautiful! I have some of the same shots from my two weeks in Lisbon in 2016. Love that city. Thank you.
Love the videos, so relaxing and encourages me to get out and about 👍🏻
more of this please, so good.
You are very talented with capturing photos with pleasing reflections. I've noticed this in many of your videos and love it! Keep up the great work FW :)
Lisbon is easily my favourite city. So much so that I'm going to move there in January. Hit me up if you ever come back, and let's take some shots together! ✨
That first shot is absolutely fire!
Its funny cuz I came back yesterday from a US road trip and I love the difference to Portugal/Lisbon. I’m Portuguese and I shoot mainly in Lisbon (have two POV vids) and I love the US cities look. I found Lisbon to be very narrow and with a lot of signal pollution. Don’t get me wrong, I love my city but I’m used to it.
9:55 is 👌🏾
love your calm style Faizal.
Really enjoyed this video. I've recently returned from a trip to Lisbon and loved the place. Thanks.
same here, started at Portimao, then Lisbon, then Porto
I'm really enjoying your choice of music! Great content, also.
It feels so strange to recognise all those places. Never thought I'll miss Lisbon so much. Thank you for this video!
you need to go to Porto Portugal, everything there is so beautiful, you'll love it
looking forward to more GR IIIx
Like your videos but specially love that one. I’m native from Lisbon.
Keep up sharing your amazing photos. Thanks!
this is such a lovely video! i recently went to lisbon and i can’t wait to go back 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your work! Loved to see my hometown from your perspective! Please, do share more videos!
at 12:33 written on the wall in hindi, which means "I don't remember exactly ".
Another great video Faisal. Did a lot of street photography in Porto, but the hills in Lisbon & Porto were hard on my old back. So far, my most photogenic city , in my opinion of course , is Lucerne . Working on a plan to return to Europe soon. Absolutely love the history & architecture.
Love your videos bro. Really inspiring. I always wondered if you or one of your parents were former Malaysian/Indonesian. Faisal is a classic name. Cheers bro
Great video of a beautiful place. Love the photos.
Great video Faizal, you are a truly inspiring street photographer. Congratulations!!! 👍
Love your videos and seeing things through your eyes. This makes me want to return to Lisbon again too.
Thanks for showing us Lisbon! Looks like a nice city to visit for sure
Very engaging and awesome perspectives! So cool to see your trip in Lisbon and that Pastel de nata looks sooo good… sorry if I butchered the spelling. The photos too are superb
Welcome to the beautiful Lisboa!
Lisbon is a fantastic city. A photographers's paradise! Pasteis de nata. There's a famous pasteis de nata bakery down by the cathedral on the waterfront! ;)
I really like your compositional choices Faizal.
Thanks RJ!
Incredible as always Faizal !
Beautiful pictures. Greetings from Argentina
Very nice video and shot my friend 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hi faizal
Thank you for Sharing your fantastic Photos. Amazing...🤩
the sun looks nice on the buildings
lovely as always!
looks like someone is enjoying the GR more than the XE4 nowadays. ill have to check it out
That graffiti in Hindi at 2:30 means “I don’t remember (something) accurately”.
8:53 is a really good shot
Just in time for my first photography trip to NYC
Lovely video, its amazing how in Lisbon you meet your fans haha, amazing. Hope to go to Lisbon this summer, gonna bring my Mamiya with me :).
aaaaaa I liver here and didn't get to see you! But nice you liked the city!
2:30 Hindi in Portugal! Wow
wow you captured the city perfectly!
thank you!!
Lisboa 💜
Beautiful Work.
Thank you for another great video! Someday you can visit Porto, northern Portugal.
I wanted to visit Porto! but seeing as we were in Lisbon for just two weeks we figured to stay put and do a separate trip another time. So much to see in Portugal
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 ....
lisbon!! 👩🏼❤️💋👩🏻
…your pictures are getting better everyday,,you tend to overuse reflections tho,,I wish you could show the best of your shots & verbally caption them, make use of your talent in articulating what you see, instead of just randomly shooting things with no descriptive like they are random meaningless shots, you know what I’m saying,,altogether it’s a joy watching your street vlogs!! Keep it up!!
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?
..not trying to hurt your feelings when I said overuse,,now that you’ve explained it, I do understand what you’re doing,,take it easy,,looking forward to more of your photo walks
@@rudyvelez1741 no hurt feelings lol
I’d say the Dutch angle is being used too much (but I personally think any Dutch angles are too much haha). Definitely a lot of bangers in here though
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.
Yeah, the way the clothes are drying is crazy. We use to do that kind of crazy stuff.
the goat 🐐
4:22
wowzer
What camera did you use for the POV video?
Love your reflections. Funny but, no portuguese was seen in this video haha😅
very nice, thank you.
Excellent video and great photos! I have a question for you, have you ever had a need for a wider fov during a photo walk? 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!
Great job!
Very nice viideo ... I want more! I hope You will visit Italy, make video and shoot much photos in old street city and village. 👍👍👍👍😍
Loved the plastic bottle move 😂
Love and support from Beijing❤
You should try Sony A7RV with 12-24mm
You should do a second video in Lisbon, I mean, there’s so much more to explore! I’m bias cause it’s my city but damn, its beautiful!
More to come! Don’t worry!
The miradouros in Lisbon like são Pedro de Alcântara or Adamastor are worth passing by. The 28 electric car also if you have time, The neighborhood Alfama is a wonderful labyrinth to explore and so on…enjoy the trip!
8:11 the graffiti is a funny coincidence 🙂
Beautiful pics (like always) Faizal! Love to watch your videos. One question, do you still have the go pro on your chest? The angle looks a little different to me but it looks really good.
Just made a video on the Ricoh GRIIIx in Japan myself. Despite some shitty parts, the images are hard to top given its size.
Great video again Faizal. I was wondering if you experienced any dust issues during your travel and what are your thoughts on this camera with regard to this issue. It is one of the only thing that prevent me from making a choice, but I see your work abroad and am in love the potential of this camera. I will be in East and Southeast Asia for a while and want to make the right decision. Thanks!
Nice! I was there last week
Love and support from Shanghai❤hope meet you in China! (but not now...
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?
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
5:32 like San Francisco
Would you please be able to post some of the settings you use? I too have the same camera. Been fiddling around with recipes 😊
🙏👍🤩 I love your video and pictures! I’m from Denmark but LOVE Lisboa and go there as often as I can… I just bought a RICOH GR3x and are excited. Can you tell me about which presets you’re using - M, P, U1,2,3, or..?
Lovely video, I am interested in the Ricoh and hence came across your video and later subscribed. What camera do you use for your POV video?
Nice one!
