About Hiroshima Through Film

About Hiroshima Through Film

Hiroshima Through Film began as a simple idea — to walk through the city with a camera and see what most people pass by without noticing.
This is a personal photography archive created to share the beauty, history, and quiet moments of Hiroshima. My goal is not only to introduce famous places such as Hiroshima Castle and other well-known landmarks, but also to preserve small local scenes that are often missed by ordinary travel guides — a quiet bend in the Ota River, a mountain path in spring, a small temple gate few travelers ever notice.
All photographs on this site are personally taken by me. Each image includes camera and lens information, because photography itself is also an important part of this archive. I mainly shoot with a SIGMA fp and a Panasonic LUMIX S5IIX, moving between modern and vintage lenses to let each scene find its own expression.
This website is not a commercial travel guide. It is a visual journey through Hiroshima, seen through a photographer's eyes. I hope these photographs help visitors discover a deeper and more personal side of the city.
