If you are reading this, we are friends. And if you know me, you probably know that I've been a part of the Osaka bonvivant community for twenty years.
In that time, I've played in a rock band, done stand-up, and presented at Pecha Kucha Nishinomiya on the joys of living. But in all this time, I've sought to do what my father set out to do befor me: bring community together in an active fashion. He did it with Stars of the Future. I'm doing it with Kameraoke
The Ricky Bobby types who don't know what to do with their hands may ask, what's in it for me?
For those who like walking, there is that.
For the photographers, your ¥300 submission for each photo you send will be entered in the voting exhibition on 3/29, and you get to take home your print at the event. (Not after, unless you DM me).
Photographers MAY also win a prize on the night, chosen by the public.
For those that can't make the walk, you can still submit at https://www.jotform.com/form/260143514308044
Themes are:
Shadows
See Through
Heisei (Era)
Fashion
Found Collage
by TOMORROW MARCH 21!

For the people that just came in, your voice in voting for the photo that suits the theme best determines the winning photos. There is no cover at the event at Absinthe Underground. (new!)
I believe that collaboration, be it music jams, comedy improv, or photowalks, have always been an experience of joyful discovery. Showing up has taught me that success is all about being comfortable with your shortcomings. Done is better than perfect.
We set out for one thing, but we uncover more by simply being out, and recognising others for the mission we share.
Photowalk at 2 today. If you can't meet us at Fukushima Station, then join us at Takamura Coffee Roasters at 4.
I'll join up at four, but Mike D. will be at Fukushima Station from 1:45 to 2.
