Somewhat related: One of my favorite Youtube channels is Rambalac. It's just videos of walking through various places in Japan, from crowded streets to peaceful natural areas. No voiceover or explanations - almost every video is as if a video camera were moving around on its own and recording everything it saw (occasionally he interacts with things). Super relaxing to have on in the background, and really cool to wat…

By any chance, do you know what kind of camera Rambalac uses?

Why did the author mostly creepshot women and children?

Because the creator wasn't an American puritan of the 21st century millennial variety (or someone thinking like one) who considers candid street photography (an art with a huge tradition) as "creep-shots" or considers human depictions dirty. Never mind the photographer being herself a woman.

You can not have a thread about Tokyo snapshots without mentioning Daido Moriyama[1][2]. :) [1] https://www.moriyamadaido.com/en/ [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daid%C5%8D_Moriyama

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I don't know how to ask this without it seeming dismissive, but how much more difficult is it to live your normal life by someone's use of this word?

You are asking why sticks and stones break bones, but why should words hurt?

I can't see anything "vivid" on those pictures, honestly.
