Solo Trip : Chiangmai with Fujifilm X100F
First thing first, as you probably know… nowadays we heard that many people love shooting street photography as it’s a upcoming trend, the question is why? there are lots more style of shooting photo, e.g. Portrait, Landscape, Documentary whatsoever. So today I will try to explain the definition and example of street photography, let’s rock!
Street photography, also sometimes called candid photography, is photography conducted for art or enquiry that features unmediated chance encounters and random incidents. within public places. Although there is a difference between street and candid photography, it is usually subtle with most street photography being candid in nature and some candid photography being classifiable as street photography. Street photography does not necessitate the presence of a street or even the urban environment. Though people usually feature directly, street photography might be absent of people and can be of an object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile or aesthetic.
Street photography can focus on people and their behavior in public, thereby also recording people’s history. This motivation entails having also to navigate or negotiate changing expectations and laws of privacy, security and property. In this respect the street photographer is similar to social documentary photographers or photojournalists who also work in public places, but with the aim of capturing newsworthy events; any of these photographers’ images may capture people and property visible within or from public places. The existence of services like Google Street View, recording public space at a massive scale, and the burgeoning trend of self-photography (selfies), further complicate ethical issues reflected in attitudes to street photography.
Time’s up! let’s see some of my street photography. All by Fujifilm X100F, my lovely pocket camera. Once I was there alone, in Chiangmai.
If you go somewhere alone, I suggested you to try/fine some hostel. It’s also very cheap and get you more possibilities to meet people, find new friends, exchange some incredible experiences and fun! “Two gals and the pig boutique hostel” located in the middle of Nimman.
“Asama cafe” Chilling place nearby Chiangmai City, recommended if you love drinking coffee. And “Motorbike” for a budget reason.
“VT Nam-Neung” is not a traditional food of northern like here in Chiangmai, but it is Vietnamese Food, came here longtime ago from northeastern e.g. Udonthani, Nongkhai. But it’s cheaper than BKK and also delicious and healthy, So I picked it as my dinner tonight!
You are what you eat, some people says! and I totally agree with them.

“Nana Jungle – Saturday Market” Hot coffee & fresh croissant to start the day with a jungle backdrop – breakfast at Nana Jungle Bakery is a nice little treat. Every Saturday from about 7:30 until about 10 o’clock. (Pickup the Queue number when you arrived first) It’s fresh from the oven. I used to get it back to BKK, still yummy!
After finished buying a bread… I have to go somewhere good for view and chilling time at noon is coming!
Thanks to the Fujifilm, that made a tiny pocket camera with powerful performance that I can bring everywhere for daily life and especially for traveling easily, fast and reliable to take a very quick snapshot for street photography with one-hand operate. All moment by Fujifilm X100F
