KAMAKURA, JAPAN VLOG 🇯🇵 | TOKYO Day Trip Guide [SANDMARC Cloud Diffusion Filters]

After my trip to Nikko, I spent a few days in Tokyo before taking a day trip out to Kamakura, a place that my family and I frequently visit. Home to a black sand beach and the mountains, it’s the perfect day trip location for every season with different flowers taking turns to bloom as the different months pass.

The easiest way to get to Kamakura from Tokyo will be from Tokyo Station, where there is the JR Yokosuka Line which goes directly to Kamakura Station. From there, you can take the scenic Enoden Train to Hase Station to visit Hase-dera, or go further towards Enoshima. For more details on Enoshima, you can watch another vlog of mine here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAPO0e8Dq-8&t=317s

SANDMARC Cloud Diffusion Filters ✨

A huge thank you to SANDMARC for sending me their Cloud Diffusion Filters to test out for this vlog! It’s a filter that can be clipped on over your phone camera to create a softening and glowing effect for a more cinematic and dreamy look for the videos and photos you capture.

The filters do this by taking the brightest objects within the scope of your lens, and creates a soft glow around it, while also lifting shadows of darker areas while maintaining its contrast and sharpness. I used the filters with my iPhone 11 Pro, and found it to also fit perfectly over my camera lens so I used it with that as well. For more details, please refer to the link below:
