2025.8.10 I assisted with a 360-degree camera photography workshop! (Hosted by Uwajima 360)
I participated as a helper in a 360-degree camera photography workshop organized by the NPO "Uwajima 360" in Uwajima City. This time, I had the opportunity to learn through hands-on experience about the initiatives of everyone who is usually active in event photography and other activities.

📷 Activities

🎯 Purpose of the Event
The event was held for people of all ages, from children to adults, to let many people know the fun and possibilities of 360-degree cameras.
📝 Impressions
With smartphones and regular cameras, the photographer themselves is not captured, but since 360-degree cameras capture all directions, if you're not careful, many "accidental photos" are also created (lol). Including that, it was a very fun and educational time.
