My first time in BKK, one of them monitor lizard (big one) was running towards me. I thought "this is how I die... Lizard chow" but at the last second it turned and dove in a pond. The locals that were watching were laughing one of them told me "He more scared of you". Thank you for sharing


rainstorminspace

Me too. I was really surprised as I had no idea they were there and I just saw one jump out of a tree and chase a cat.


eranam

Nice pics! That monitor lizard on pic 4… CHONK


rainstorminspace

I was so surprised haha


dkg224

rainstorminspace

Thanks so much


cherrygummyy

i lived in bangkok and i didn’t know it’s such a beautiful town like this! thanks for sharing.


stever71

Genuine question, how did you not notice beautiful places in Bangkok? They are literally all over the place


cherrygummyy

because i was born and raised in bangkok i saw such beautiful side and also not beautiful side but your photos show me more about this place that i didn’t notice :D


rainstorminspace

Thank you so much. That's a great compliment. I really appreciate it.


thifirstman

Same

Great pics! Last year, I travelled to Thailand and I really love it here in Bangkok, and Chiangmai. I was thinking about moving to Bangkok and finding a job.


rainstorminspace

Totally. I'm trying to find a work solution myself. Hopefully will find something and stay out here traveling permanently. I hope you can make it to Bangkok :)


im_a_jib

Porta 400?


rainstorminspace

Sony a7r4 and edited on lightroom. Never have shot film.


cs_legend_93

It's beautiful. As soon as I saw the first two pictures, I was like wow this is special


ButtersTheSpaceKitty

Wow, I thought these were film too!


Turbulent-Jacket5742

Those are some very impressive shots 👏 shows a different perspective to Bangkok city, different to what tourists usually know. Great work 👍


rainstorminspace

Thanks so much. That's what I was aiming for.


Left_Me

So beautifully portrayed 😍


rainstorminspace

Thank you. All I had to do was click the button, everything here is already so picturesque.


SuperpositionBeing

Hey, which camera and lens you're using for such beautiful photos?


IDFbombskidsdaily

I'd like to know too, especially the lenses. These photos are gorgeous! Mostly because OP has the eye for great composition, but they must be using halfway decent gear too.


rainstorminspace

a7r4 with a sigma 28-70 2.8. Thanks so much.


rainstorminspace

a7r4 with a sigma 28-70 2.8


Sea_Researcher8779

I’m sensing that these were shit with a Fujifilm camera


rainstorminspace

Actually they were shit with a sony


Sea_Researcher8779

Sorry about that typo. I meant to say shot. 😂😂😂 Nice pics. They really look like Fuji pics. Now I’m interested in Sony because this is not what I expect from Sony. Was there any post-processing?


rainstorminspace

Yeah I edit everything through lightroom.


WeeTheDuck

how did you know what he was going for lol. Anyway great pics!


Anonasty

Nice colour grading and compositions.


rainstorminspace

Thanks very much. I'm trying to improve.


indiebryan

How is this camera a higher resolution than real life


Candlelight_Fant4sia

Upgrade your real life to the latest version, problem solved...


rainstorminspace

New update just dropped


rainstorminspace

Hahaha 61 megapixels will do that


OATdude

Lovely snaps! ☺️


rainstorminspace

Thank you!


IDFbombskidsdaily

Inspiring stuff for the ex-photographer in me. Gorgeous colors and compositions here, rainstorm! You ever do any professional work? You certainly have the eye for it.


rainstorminspace

I've made some money yeah. My savings have all but dried up so I'm currently looking for work that will allow me to stay out here traveling, hopefully something behind the camera. Thank you for the compliment, it's the ego boost I need right now.


Womenarentmad

These are amazing ❤️


rainstorminspace

You're amazing!


salx777

It's an amazing city


thchx

I love the color tone.


rainstorminspace

Me too. The light here is so golden that it really makes the colors pop.


Wide-Personality683

These are some of the best picture of Bangkok I've seen. Thanks for sharing :)


rainstorminspace

Thanks so much :)


Leo1309

Op loves my neighborhood


rainstorminspace

Which is yours?


1ThousandRoads

Great captures. Really enjoyed these.


NickNack54321

Love these


TwinkleD08

This made me miss bangkok so much 🥲


naabi_

Wow, so beautiful 😍 I got to live here for a few months while studying abroad and your pictures made me feel very happy. That's the city I fell in love with


Nappe-Eppan

Amazing photos! Also the size of that monitor lizard lol


rainstorminspace

He was a big boy. I was worried he might be a bit hungry.


TravellingBeard

This post hurt; I must come back.


rainstorminspace

I hope you will!


TravellingBeard

I am shifting when I'm coming I think. I usually come Feb/March. Will be targeting November next year as things start to cool.


BlackPride1993

You have a good eye, these were nice to look at.


_WonderWhy_

Damn I miss this city!


rainstorminspace

I wonder why...


_WonderWhy_

Hahaha, great pictures by the way!


Vasconcelos300

Thanks for the pictures. Your post does not make it clear if you intend to be in Bangkok for an extended period. I now reside in Bangkok, and would love to find someone who is not a tourist and is interested in exploring the less known areas of the city.


rainstorminspace

I'm in Chiang Mai right now for a couple more months and then I'll be heading back to Japan for the rest of the year. I'd love to explore Bangkok more though, eventually I'll make my way back. There are just too many interesting places, no matter where I go I feel like I'm missing out.


IncomeDifferent4803

Good job


shadesDrawn

Such beautiful colours. Takes me right back to my trip as well. BKK has gritty charm, enormous beauty, and oh god such amazing food! I love shot 14


rainstorminspace

It's a colorful city. Hard to take a bad picture there. I hope you can come back and enjoy it again :)


Apprehensive_Big5042

How did you get that kinda colour? It looks like old timey Kodachrome


rainstorminspace

Just edited on Lightroom until I liked it 🤷‍♂️


Apprehensive_Big5042

Hope you saved them settings 😁 Very cool photos
