Stepping Out - My Animé Life: Turning Scenes Around With the Prisma “Tokyo” Filter

in travel •  7 years ago 

The following are a series of images I captured with my phone from a trip downtown the other night. I used the Prisma mobile app’s “Tokyo” filter on all of them, and was really pleased with the results.

For me these pictures capture the feel of Japan city life at dusk/evening better than the unedited photos in a way. The filter simplifies the impressions and renders images which remind me of popular animé and manga styles of depiction.

I hope you’ll enjoy this latest slice of #randomjapan.

It really does give the impression of what the city would look and feel like in an anime about the city. I couldn't think of a better name for the filter.

My question is: how many layers of life and art imitating each other is this on?

lol. good question. too late to try and tease that one apart right now. :) I'll try tomorrow.

Really nice shots, they indeed look like taken from an anime.

Thanks for making us travel to Nigata city, the pictures are looking awesome every way. It seems that cold atmosphere is still prevail in your city. We are experiencing early summer season here in India. Have a great day friend happy steeming.

Turns everything into art. Was using this app way before steemit even existed but then stopped :D This is making me wanna download it again.
