Enjoying the night, eating, drinking, talking about their passion, and of course doing street photography! This is the kind of videos that i like, wonderful. I really like your shots guys!
The amount of passion Lukasz has for the little things is intoxicating and very influential. Great footage of him explaining himself and show what he loves to do.
I've rewatched this video several times at this point. I love watching the process and hearing the thoughts behind the photo, it's really cool to see, glad you guys met up again to make more videos!
I've been going to Tokyo since 1977. I go regularly every 2 years.. I love this place. I will be there next October. Tokyo by night is great. Great video thanks.
Saw the 38:33 time and thought maybe it’s too long, I’m tired, it’s bedtime..... Stays for whole video and wishes it wasn’t finished. Good video as always.
Very interesting, enjoyable video! Lukasz' photos are very nice. I really appreciate him sharing his settings -- I found myself asking that question within the first four minutes or so. Thank you Lukasz and Samuel!
This video could have been 3 hours long and I would have loved it. God damn. Thank you so much for this upload. Truly inspiring and simply lovely to watch!
Loved his approach to settings and his simple explanations. Inspiring… And such a great notion about the ‘machinery’ of the city…. Dream/reality A photobook by him would be really worth having.
This video is a gem on your channel! Opened my eyes about night street photography. Love how Lukasz share about his vision, techniques, down to the camera settings and reasons why a D4, lol! You guys seems had a fun long night 😁
This makes me nervous to go to Tokyo...because I think every time I turn my head I'll want to take another photo. It'll take me hours to go down a single street 😆 Thanks for this tour-beautiful shots!
Thank you samuel ................ you bring great photographers with out any EGO .......appreciate that mindset ............. both of you rock in this episode
Lukasz is damn good at street. Cool you got to tour around with him, and thanks for the video. Definitely added his channel as a subscription. You got a few film keeper's too. Thumbs up.
I know nothing about photography yet I still watched till the end. There's something about capturing the look of the city without a filter (gritty) - this is good stuff.
Would love to have evenings like this. Me, a good friend, interesting places, a couple of cameras, and hours out just capturing the sights. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you.
This video was really informative, i loved every second about it. He seemed to enjoy being out, and his photos were secondary. I've seen a lot of people dying to get the shot and getting in people's faces and being excessively invasive to get a shot. This video really opened my eyes to a lot about street photography
I'm so glad that comes across, because that really is my philosophy. For me, photography is about mindful exploration of one's world. If I can get beautiful photos as a byproduct of that exploration... well that is just the cherry on top of the cake. :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, Samuel. Good to see Lukasz in action. Been following his work for a while now. This is such a cool series. It was this very series that inspired me to start shooting streets more often and after watching this video, I feel like shooting streets at night a lot more often than currently do.
Recently bought a GRiii and i used to watch Lukasz giving tips using the GR system. It was fun seeing him in a video even though it was ages ago. Thank you Samuel for featuring him. Hope I can book a street photo sesh with him once travel is safer. Amazingly good urban and street photographer. This video was an amazing watch during the lockdown and was as good or better than the one with Sean Tucker. Seemed like you didn’t want the video to end !
This is definitely one of the best street photography videos I've watched on RUclips. Tokyo is my favorite place to visit in the world. There is a romantic yet melancholic mood to the video. It's informative but not preachy. Moreover, the photos AND the photographers look amazing. 😉 You and Lukasz should collaborate more! 😊
@@LukaszPalkaPhoto I hope to take your workshop in Tokyo after this whole situation with covid becomes better. I'm really looking forward to learning from you. 😊
With lockdown in full force, your video was so important and helpful for me. I felt transported to another world, a world of learning, light and shadow. People and sounds, smiles and a tiny bit of fear. "We better go before the Yakuza F us up" :) Thank you both for this experience. I want to visit Tokyo so bad and do a workshop with you Lukas. I love your shooting style, both of you take good advantage of the tools, analogue and digital. Best wishes to you Sam and Lukas, and thanks again for this slice of art.
Thank you Brandon for your lovely comment! I am very happy to hear that my video made your lockdown a little brighter. This is exactly what I want my videos to accomplish. You should definitely give Tokyo a visit and I'm sure Lukasz will be thrilled to have you as a workshop participant. Let's hope we can all go back to our normal lives soon and enjoy photography. Best wishes from germany, Samuel.
@@SamuelStreetlife As the whole video was very interesting with both of you. I was in Tokyo in September, and now, I'm watching every single street photographer doing that kind of POV session, to not forget this incredible city. Your session is very good. Appreciate the way you're doing it. Thanks mate 🙏🏼 cheers from France!
Your little captions here and there were hilarious. I discovered Lukasz through the interview video too and attended one of his workshops. It was a treat watching this.
Lukasz Palka is a very good street photographer. Last October, I took his Cyberpunk tour of Shinjuku/Shibuya. It was definitely worth it because he brings you to special places that you wouldn't discover on your own. I highly recommend his photo tours, it's worth every penny...
What a great video. It feels like I’m there. And isn’t that what a big part of street photography is? Feeling like your there or that you can smell the street. Very serene and peaceful but very informative. Thank you. Happy shooting and cheers
Just got back from my first (and certainly not last) trip to japan. So happy to see I was haunting the exact same locations looking for shots! I too am a cockroach and loved those Tokyo alleyways! Beautiful video of your adventures! That area at the end near Ueno station was great! I got some amazing angles of that similar staircase on the other side of the intersection!
I am a natural teacher, but when I'm out shooting on my own, I don't think about this stuff so much. I do it without thinking and focus on the moments. :)
I loved this video. Not much more to say other than that. As a beginner photographer, this is so inspiring. I see this and I just want to be part of it. Street photography is so fun
wow, I just watched the whole thing and didn't even notice that it was actually almost 40 minutes long. Well done, Samuel! I really enjoy videos of this kind of depth. More of this, please. :-)
The most interesting street photography video I’ve seen yet, your choice of a CLE is spot on, I can’t see how a pure Leica with its clumsy film loading is what you need in the dark ! I’ve used mine for working for years in poor lighting, where no mirror and a near silent shutter gives you extra stops ... Great vibe and atmosphere, you worked well together !
Sweet video, thank you two for making it! It's been ages since I've looked at digital night shots and it does look very clean now. 5 years ago on my old digital it still looked a weird mess, noisy, bad colours! Even though it has improved, it still can't beat those Cinestill colours! I never get over those, going to keep shooting film just for the lovely colours!
Omg Lukasz i didnt know that was you, i fell in love with your ig feed for a long time now, your futuristic, cyberpunkish photos are for me mindblowing! and how you described your hidden spots made me feel like i was there too! thank you samuel for featuring him, one of my favourites videos ever.
Night photography is one of my favourite forms of photography. I think a reason why the nightlife in Asia is so great is because of how hot it is during the day. Things cool down after sundown, which makes it easier to socialize. At least that's what I noticed while visiting family in Vietnam. On the other hand, here in Canada, we tend to try to maximize our daylight hours when the summer comes because by the winter it gets dark by 4pm. Great interview. Loved hearing Lukasz's process.
Nice video as usual ! Happy to see that I’m not the only one fighting with my cap when shooting portait layout 😊. Thanks to Lukas’s who is really an interesting photograph, ready to share tips... thanks !

I really liked this guy .. he's so authentic and just explains everything so calm and it's really interesting to see trough his eyes
Enjoying the night, eating, drinking, talking about their passion, and of course doing street photography! This is the kind of videos that i like, wonderful. I really like your shots guys!
Glad you liked it!
This is my favorite video I think...Just wow, lukasz is such an artist. We don't get many like him folks make sure you support this guy.
Thanks for the kind words man!! :)
This is still one my favourite videos on RUclips
wow thank you!
So much respect for Lukaz and his photography style. The output from this guy is phenomenal. It would be cool if you met up with him again. ✌️
:)
I love Tokyo at night. It's very photogenic.
This guy's portfolio gives me Enter the Void vibes. Stunning pictures.
Thanks!! :D I am definitely a fan of that movie!
@ジョージ様 Thanks!!
Yes, exactly. I was trying to remember the name of that movie
this is exactly what's on my mind watching this
Where can i see his portfolio?
The amount of passion Lukasz has for the little things is intoxicating and very influential. Great footage of him explaining himself and show what he loves to do.
Lukasz!!! You shot with a legend! This looked super fun, thanks for filming it! :)
Wow, 'legend'!! I am honored! :D
What's up Jason! Cool to see you here! Yes, Lukasz is a legend :D
28:37 Amazing photo!!!...
This is my favourite episode. Love the vibe, the scenes, and the people.
lukasz is really likeable. thanks for introducing him
They have such a soft and pleasant lighting in the streets.
I love the how different your guys styles are.
Lukas' video of him shooting the streets were one of my first actual exposures to candid photography. Respect to an OG.
Thanks man!! :D
There's something special about Tokyo at night. Thx for the flashbacks.
I've rewatched this video several times at this point. I love watching the process and hearing the thoughts behind the photo, it's really cool to see, glad you guys met up again to make more videos!
You guys are both so chill and easy to listen to. Great photos too!
Samuel, your Ricoh shot of the dark alleyway with the three white signs was so nice! moooooooody..
I've been going to Tokyo since 1977. I go regularly every 2 years.. I love this place. I will be there next October. Tokyo by night is great. Great video thanks.
Great video samuel! Thank you and to lukazs, beautiful imagery and great tips!
This was so much fun. He loves the city and you can really tell. The compulsion to really explore a subject comes out of that appreciation
Saw the 38:33 time and thought maybe it’s too long, I’m tired, it’s bedtime..... Stays for whole video and wishes it wasn’t finished.
Good video as always.
Thank you!!! That's the best compliment when people watch it through the end :)
Samee
1.5X always!
Very interesting, enjoyable video! Lukasz' photos are very nice. I really appreciate him sharing his settings -- I found myself asking that question within the first four minutes or so. Thank you Lukasz and Samuel!
Very enjoyable videos full of good tips. Lukasz you have a new fan!
Glad to hear that! :)
Such a beautiful video. I really wish I can watch this for the first time again : )
This video could have been 3 hours long and I would have loved it. God damn. Thank you so much for this upload. Truly inspiring and simply lovely to watch!
I put this on every morning when I get to work. It’s a weirdly meditative and calming way to start the day
Absolutely true!
Yeah right @deathintheballs!
May I also suggest recent japan series by @itchban. Also very meditative, very chill, great music and photos.
I enjoyed this video. Thanks for posting.
Great video showing life at night, photography, people, city caos!
I can't tell you how inspirational your videos are. You're superb at drawing out the expertise of some incredible street shooters. Many thanks, sir!
Thanks so much Harry! :)
28:37 was a pure money shot. very nice mood, esp with the cinestill.
Thanks! I knew it would look awesome because of CineStill and I'm happy it worked.
DaDonFather true, that was a really nice fucking photo
Loved his approach to settings and his simple explanations. Inspiring…
And such a great notion about the ‘machinery’ of the city….
Dream/reality
A photobook by him would be really worth having.
Lukasz is a great photographer. I had an honor to hang out with him few years ago, and see him "in action".
Thanks Pawel!! When are you coming to Tokyo next?
Not anytime soon, I'm afraid. I love Tokyo and Japan, and I'll definitely come at some point, but for now, first stop is Brazil and then Canada.
This video is a gem on your channel!
Opened my eyes about night street photography. Love how Lukasz share about his vision, techniques, down to the camera settings and reasons why a D4, lol! You guys seems had a fun long night 😁
Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Shooting Cinestill at night in any Asian country is a photography cheatcode
This makes me nervous to go to Tokyo...because I think every time I turn my head I'll want to take another photo. It'll take me hours to go down a single street 😆 Thanks for this tour-beautiful shots!

Woow...awesome. Ameyocho had been always my favorite. I use Fuji X-T30 with 35mm.
That shot with the red umbrella was great!
Love this series of videos around the world!!

@@armanmislang7726 I look forward to it as well! Stay safe!
@@LukaszPalkaPhoto likewise, Lukasz. See you soon! 😁
Very cool, I picked up a few pointers. Hope to go to Japan again soon.
Super enjoyable vid Sam. Lukas seems like a cool ass dude to chill with, with or without street photography in mind.

What a great video. So informative. I have nothing like his D4 but I own a D610. I'm going to experiment with what I learned from this video.
He's a master of the alleys Samuel. Awesome video as always!
Thank you :)
Great to see Lukasz in action! Manual mode with Auto ISO on Nikon is the same as TAv on a PENTAX DSLR. 😆
11:36 cool that beautiful and "chaotic" shot was made at the stroke of midnight
Haha, I think the clock is stopped. Sorry to ruin it! :)
The shot at 23:30. Amazing.
Thank you! :)
Last scene with the rockabilly dancers was the coolest scene ever. Amazing video, Tokyo is the best spot for street photography. 🙌🏼
Great to hear you appreciate the last scene :D I loved it so much I had to find a way to incorporate it into the video.

What a nice guy! I want to Visit Japan bad!!!!! Awesome shots! Great vlog as usual
First time ! Great work!
Such an epic video Samuel!!
Digital, film, Tokyo, rain!!
It all adds up to street photography gold.
Thank you for it!
Glad you liked that mixture!
Samuel L. Streetlife 😀👍
That first video where Lukasz appeared for the first time on youtube has become quite legendary
:)
This is how I discovered him, too. So glad I had the chance to shoot a video together!
@@SamuelStreetlife mee to :)
nice street photography trip!
I need more of night photography in tokyo with this man please
Samuel's shot at 30:35 really shows how bright those lights keep the streets, and how dark it is without them.
Your little captions here and there were hilarious. I discovered Lukasz through the interview video too and attended one of his workshops. It was a treat watching this.

This is probably the best night urban shooting I've watched by far. So many composition ideas! Thanks to both of you! Subbed!🤙
Lovely video, thank you! Great info from both you guys.
Life before Covid-19, it's nice to watch and feel apart of what you guys are doing.
Great video!!!
Thank you Samuel!!
I fashioned 2 zip ties for a lens tab. Easy to make. Highly customizable and super cheap. Makes focusing less of a hassle.
What a great video. It feels like I’m there. And isn’t that what a big part of street photography is? Feeling like your there or that you can smell the street. Very serene and peaceful but very informative. Thank you. Happy shooting and cheers

Great video, what a good pair you make. It was fun and informative. Ill defintely be following Lukaz. Keep up the high quality videos samuel
I did one of his photo adventures while I was in Tokyo last month. Talented photographer and a good dude!
Thanks for the kind words man!! :)
Lukasz seems to be the type of photographer that talks a lot about technicality and Samuel it’s just the chill film photographer xd
I am a natural teacher, but when I'm out shooting on my own, I don't think about this stuff so much. I do it without thinking and focus on the moments. :)

Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
I'm always fascinated not just by your photos, but your video as well.
Appreciate it Glen!
Photographs like this invoke a sense of longing and melancholy that I don't experience with moving film. I wonder why?
Such a cool channel you have here. Thank you for sharing this stuff
This was really nice and I learnt a lot. Really liked Lukasz explaining his stuff :)
