Whats with the sideways photos?

>>17021731
Phones especially make use of the orientation exif tag when taking photos to take them in the same orientation and then have the application rotate them.
4chan strips exif tags.

Guys who visited Japan for a holiday - how many photos did you take and what was the duration? For some reason curious as to "how many photos a day on average is usually taken" during a trip like this.

Cool stuff.

>>17026765
No idea. Alot? It depends on what you are doing. I didn't bother taking pictures of women pretending to be geisha or super tourist spots. Far too many pictures of that stuff online. I'd take pictures of my apartment, cats in windows, my meals, beautiful sights, random things in the night. I've never seen the need to take 10000 photos a day, when you'll never look at them all ever again. Take what you want and enjoy Japan.

I came home with like 3k. I will check the actual number in a bit.

Is it true that Japanese buildings aren't really insulated and got super cold in the winter and super hot in the summer?

This kind of thing is what I love about Japan, it seems wherever you go there's this stark juxtaposition between hyper modernity and ancient tradition that really makes the country uniquely beautiful.

>>17030959
I think it's mostly only houses in Hokkaido that have things like double glazing and central heating

>>17030959

Yes, it sucks.

>>17031035
It's weird, when I was in Tokyo, I was in a temple somewhere, on top of a hill (Kanda Shrine, from my googling and what I can remember).
Then I decide to walk randomly. I go down the hill and continue walking. I don't need to walk much and then I find large, crowded streets. I look around. Then I notice "I'm in Akihabara." That was my first time there, and was a bit shocking.

>>17030959
It's not as bad as people make out.

It is true of older buildings.

>>17026765
I havent gone to Japan since I got my Dslr but I usually take about 2500 a week on the past 2 trips Ive taken to Vietnam and China. I imagine I'll be taking more when I next go to Japan.

While Im at it, any less well known cities or towns that /jp/ could recommend? Im planning a December-January trip for later this year.

>>17026542
Holy shit I know where this is. This is near Akebonobashi, I used to work there.

Thank you for making this thread again, I saw it wasn't up and felt sad earlier today. You forgot to give it the proper name though.

I will be going for three weeks in three weeks, a trip from Tokyo along most of the southern coast of Honshu to Hiroshima. I'm hoping to get a lot of photography done. I'm really really new to the whole thing though and would love to get some hints on when and where to go.

Oh sorry, I wasn't sure if there was a proper name for these threads since they seem to appear and then disappear for a while so I just tried to put as many key words as I could in the OP so people could find it.
It would be nice if these can be a regular thing though, although I only have one fairly short trip's worth of pictures to share myself

>>17076984
I was actually passing through the area, entirely unaware it was near the nuclear station. I was taking the Jouban Line up the east coast - the line stopped at Tatsuta and you had to take a JR arranged shuttle bus to get to Minami-Souma, where the line resumed all the way to Sendai. I decided to walk to Tomioka and take the bus from there, past the sign that says "only vehicles allowed for the next 6km", and no one stopped me - once police pulled up and asked for my visa, but that was all, and they didn't seem to mind me being there. I never did go into Ookuma, which would probably have been rather more dangerous - the radiation levels I was walking through were probably 2 microSv/h, for reference.

It was also quite interesting - one of the policemen was from the Fukui police, and apparently he said that as this region needed policing they had sent for manpower from all around Japan.

There are barely any locals, the only people there are workers. I think some of the regions have been fully opened up to public already, but its not likely many of the people that were evacuated will return. Sometimes I almost felt like walking through a ghost town.

See pic related - detox work for the town of Tomioka has long been completed, and I think Namie also, but I'm pretty sure Ookuma will still be closed off to pedestrians.

Maybe a few years ago but Kenrokuen is just as filled with tourists as any popular Kyoto temple nowadays.

>>17095379

Lots of reasons.

The big one for me is the history. A lot of traditions and things are done in Kyoto that are forgotten in the bigger cities. The block I live on does hi no youji with wooden blocks older than anyone remembers. They say they are from the edo period but I kind of doubt they go that far back. Everywhere you look there is some building hundreds of years ago. You can't go a block or two without finding something woth history to it.

Probably just after cherry blossom season, before summer holidays, before the autumn colors kick in and before the snow.

>>17100240

Pretty much.

Winter is also rather clear. Doesn't snow very often in Kyoto, so it isn't a big tourist attraction.

>>17100276
That's a pity. I have seen photos of like Kiyomizudera and that bamboo grove out Arashiyama with snow and it looks great.

nigger you can't even take photos in the mall. at least not AEON.

>>17141090
A lot of places have no photos signs up no matter what country you are in, but they hardly enforce it unless you are doing something disruptive.

Museums and the like are more likely to enforce because they consider people posting photos of their exhibits online to be competition.
And of course onsens ban photography because people are fucking bathing.

>>17141106
>>17041090

An option for onsens would be the rooms with a small private bath attached.

But you would have to supply your own nekkid japanese chicks willing to be photographed.

Neither. I already left the island before that. But a few days prior I already saw a fireworks event at Kawaguchiko, which was much less crowded, so all was fine.

You are actually worse than Japanese tourists. They always had those Nikon cameras with them back in the 80s. Classic film cameras, I miss film.

>>17153716
It was probably a public place.
Last time I went to Meiji Jingu there were a series of weddings going on there, same kinds of processions, hundreds of random shrine visitors around taking photos and such.

>>17153716
It was in public and there were dozens of other people taking pictures, also there was literally another wedding procession every 10 minutes so it was obviously a very popular place to do so.
(Pictured is another procession a short time later, the surrounding people are just random tourists not friends/family of the couple)

>>17155130
>>17153716
>>17015830

Yea, seriously dude.

You don't get married at a famous shrine while it is open to the public and expect people not to take pictures.

In fact, the bride and groom probably enjoyed that part of it. They were the center of attention.

takoyaki!!

Not only in these pictures but also on Google maps street view, why there are no people walking in the streets?

In European cities there are always people in the streets near bus stops, malls, stores or simply walking around. Japan being healthy I thought there would be plenty of people walking too.

Pictures look better without people in them.

But for many of these pictures, it looks like they are in a really inaka place where cars are mostly used.

There are a ton of people walking around in the bigger areas though.

>>17166226
Dunno but when I was there there were people all over the place

>>17168082
Hmm. I was looking at Mito and some other cities around it, literally no one in the streets after a couple of hours street viewing in Google maps.

Maybe those cities were pictured in a Sunday or something.

>>17168092
Well I presume they wouldn't want to go out in rush hour or most of the pictures would just be rows and rows of cars
