After the first couple I thought maybe it was because my film was slightly expired and had been through quite a few airport x-ray machines, but then I scanned some shots like this so I think I can rule that out.

Same shot as the OP. Did this with a few of my shots actually to #1) see just how much different the GR is from medium format film, and #2) to work on doing more fine-tuning to my LR presets to facilitate #1.

I really like the taxis out in HK and I felt like I didn't take enough pictures of them last time I was there, so I did a little miniseries on them thsi time around. Basically just composed pictures I liked and then waited for a lone taxi to get in frame to complete the shot.

All I shoot now is Portra 400. I've never seriously shot slide film. Dunno why, just not my thing. Color negative has always been my jam and Portra is the best color negative film I've ever used so I just stick with that.

Thanks. I get the same feeling all the time looking at other people's shots and even my own from past trips. Just gives you another reason to go back.

you seem well experienced, so you might already know that lower asa (ie. 160) gives you better IQ and less grain, and that slide film would give you even less grain and even denser, sharper image. 400 on tripod at night seems like a gross misshap.

Why is this board so obsessed with traveling to HK, Japan, and Iceland to take completely forgettable snapshits? Is it because of the weebery?

It seems like half of you aren't capable of taking a photo that doesn't rely on the novelty of culture shock.

Maybe get good at photography instead of passport stamps.

Fantastic? Dude, they look like any other forgettable snapshits of buildings and cars taken in a large city. They just have "foreign" elements (to you, gaijin)

This is embarassing. Take it to /trv/ if you can't put in a modicum of effort. Taking a camera with you when you travel makes you an average tourist, not a photographer.

Interesting project but the pictures gat a bit samey after a while, Michael Wolf has already done that. Check out his Architecture of Density and Transparent Cities books for inspiration. In fact you'd probably appreciate a lot of his stuff.

There's life in the project yet though and 'modern living' encompasses more than just apartment blocks. But you'll need to commit more time to it and get to know your cities well. I think that will be your biggest challenge

Unfortunately everyone's already done everything. I've seen his stuff, and have actually talked with him a bit over email.

My original inspiration for the project was Gursky, it just manifested itself in HK apartment buildings. I'm thinking Wolf had the same idea.

there is literally nothing gurskey-esque about your work. stop blowing air up your skirt.

nice meme bro

Even the film shots look unusable beyond upboat farming on flickr, way too grainy and undetailed, they wont print well. As per the actual photos, they all look the same, no concept either, these cant form a proper set.

Nice photos.

yeah, this.

While they're not amazing photos (some are good), the foreign elements and the look of everything is so interesting to me that it elevates the photo

>>3080482
To someone born in Hong Kong they look like the kind of snapshits normies take when visiting New York.

"omg I need a picture of the bridge"

but worse, because HK isn't a very attractive city

I like these. The photos that have the most geometric precision are the most interesting to me. The others have a great mood to them, but look more like reference photos for Ghost in the Shell or something.

I can see the Gursky influence in these photos in particular, and it's not a bad thing, but maybe take that and spin it a little?

Hey SM, awesome to see you post again. Loved your old stuff. These new images aren't as successful, and I think the primary reason is you went in knowing what/how to shoot without actually slowing down to re-evaluate what you were seeing. Seeing old things with old eyes, if you will. Your old stuff was successful because it was you seeing things afresh. The first bite of something new is always the tastiest, any preceding bite has everything but the surprise. I fell into the same trap for awhile, led to a few years of pictures that weren't as good as the predecessors. Stop chasing what was, and start looking for what is.

Some general comments:

>Lack of human elements
A lot of these are just the same thing repeated with different facades. Waiting for someone at a window, or looking for something particularly interesting within the scene would have been beneficial (though surely much more time-consuming).

>The grain sucks unfortunately
These images (totally see the Burtynsky influence) really require crisp quality to let the details shine. I hate being an IQfag, but for this kind of stuff it's necessary.

TL;DR
You went back with the old kit of parts (aesthetics/organization) you assembled on your previous trip(s), thus failing to be in the moment while shooting, resulting in forgettable photos.

Wew are there a lot of assumptions in this post.

>>3080486
>>3080496
Thanks. I think the biggest thing was that I only had 3 days to shoot here, where before I had 2 weeks. I don't even think I hit my stride last time until I was almost a week in. Hard to really get into the mood of a city when you're only there for a weekend. If I got 20 or so photos I was happy with last time in 14 days, I'd be happy with a similar hit rate this time giving me 4 or 5, which I think I got. It's nice having anything to add to that project I started so long ago.

That, combined with being out of practice for a while (and that shitty moire problem which ruined a good number of my shots) and I wasn't expecting much more than I got. If this was another 2 week trip, yeah, I'd be a little disappointed. But for 72 hours in HK I'm really happy and honestly just had a blast to be out shooting again. I've been working too hard lately and this trip was just what I needed.

Hopefully some people here will be able to enjoy them, but I fully realize that sequels never live up to the original.

>>3080485
>because HK isn't a very attractive city
You're not familiar with Hong Kong obviously

>>3080506

got a link where we can see the original?

>>3080506
>3 days

Ah, missed that part. Totally tough to land and hit a stride in that short amount of time. Despite what I said, I really enjoy looking at these. Hope you enjoyed the trip!

>>3080382
I dig that alot man

>>3080508
I was born there. I don't like anime dystopia aesthetics, its not an attractive city to me.

Might shock you to learn not everyone likes the same thing as you. Not everyone from 4chan is a weeb that idolizes the east.

learn to hold your camera straight jesus christ

>>3080517
Oh yeah, which part and when did you move away?

>>3080485
I don't know man but I find HK having the best of both worlds, very modern yet some areas having that old urban wet/dry market feel. Compared to Singapore, I find the latter too sanitized.

>>3080510
Yeah the jet lag with being 12 hours off certainly didn't help much either. It was basically nap, shoot, nap, shoot, etc. Still though, had a great time.

>>3080514
Thanks.

>>3080518
I will try.

>>3080525
I agree. It's probably my second favorite city to shoot in that I've been to.

>>3080532
This is very helpful, thanks. I agree with the awkward comp on that last one. The way I had it framed was accounting for a single vehicle at the bottom and all those taxis threw it off a bit. I think I have a couple shots with a different combination of cars there. When I get back home later I'll post one that might work a bit better.

fuck there are some salty pricks on this board

>>3080404
this is the best photo in the thread

the rest look exactly the same as each other. all of your photos have a huge, glaring lack of subject. Nothing clearly draws the eye in any of them, which sucks because it's an interesting place to shoot and I can see you sorta start to 'get' it in some of the shots.

Another thing that really bugs me about these photos is that in such a huge sprawling dirty mess of a city you have managed to capture absolutely no life. It

>>3080687
You can't please all the people all the time. And last night, all those people were in my thread.

>>3080695
pressed send too soon

It all seems so incredibly empty. I think these photos could have worked better with people and scenes

I'm not trying to be mean or purposely derisory to you, I just hate it when people beat around the bush about criticism of my work, so I'm trying to be direct with you

>>3080698
I get it. Personally I dislike people so I don't like to regularly include them as subjects in my photos. I view a city as a landscape with the people in it as minor elements that I try to minimize. I was also there during Chinese labor day and the city was a madhouse so I spent my time trying to get away from people as much as possible.

>>3080704
I get what you mean.

If emptiness is your thing then you really need to emphasise it in your photos. Like really fucking smack the viewer over the head with it, 'this is space that should be full of people but it's empty for some reason'. It creates a bit of a story, the viewer can fill in the gaps about why it's empty etc.

>>3080404
I think you do that well in this one. The building in construction really towers over the rest of the photograph. There's a good sense of scale, it dwarfs anything else in the photo. Even though there are people and cars in the photo, they're insignificant in relation to the huge tower. Looking at it you immediately get a sort of cyberpunk vibe. The composition isn't amazing but you got the feel and sense of scale there so that's good.

>>3080714
Yeah I've done stuff like that in the past and liked my results. A lot of my stuff from my last trip to Japan was doing something very similar.

i dig these especially, but solid thread all around

i also feel like your digital processing is kind of weak, i feel like you can push pretty much all of those images way harder. the daytime stuff also isn't as exciting as the night shots in my opinion

>>3080770
Thank you. I'm definitely more of a minimalist when it comes to post processing for better or worse. I try to get it to look like Portra, correct the occasional verticals, and that's about it.

And I agree about the day/night disparity. I just like night shooting more so I spend more time and energy focusing on it.

Too many pictures, most of them boring, The only ones that seem interesting are the meat ones, but they really aren't, and composition is bad.

>>3080393 is OK.

Hong Kong apartment buildings as a subject? This is as tedious as long-exposure waterfalls, burning steel wool, feet hanging off rooftops, etc. This is like the reverse situation of a Chinese package tourist photographing suburban houses in the UK/US, except you're not wearing a knockoff Burberry check hat.

>>3080439
>there is only one Kirkjufell HK has thousands of apartment complexes
Way to completely miss/ignore the point
He's spot on, by the way, even your excuse supports what he said.

i feel like you should be trying to go full refn/wong kar wai but i understand where you're coming from

>>3081087
we had a wong kar wai anon that posted extremely good hong kong pics a while ago, he used some star filter too, his shit was so good. haven seen him again. OP is more on the autistic/contrived side, you need to have a more intuitive approach to get into the wong kar wai aesthetic.

>>3080990
>gwailo
gweilo. Learn to spell

You , of course, are full of ideas for unique subject matter in Hong Kong. But I bet you won't share.

Chungking Express and 2046 were actually what inspired me to want go to HK in the first place. I even remember riding that outdoor escalator the whole way last time I was there unsuccessfully trying to find the guy's apartment. I've never really tried to go for his aesthetic specifically, especially since his themes revolve more around intimacy with his characters and I'm traveling alone trying to avoid people, but I did shoot more people the first time I was there which probably lend themselves better to that style.

I uploaded them to Imgur, there may be a few that are missing from what he originally posted. I dubbed him HongKongBro. http://imgur.com/a/Hkhc5

Could I get some feedback on these? I am actually moving to HK for a year in about a month, and will be getting way more into photography while over there, so some tips would really help. My home town is too laid back to be able to go out and do street photos whenever I feel like it.
