This guided photography experience pairs small groups of inbound travellers with a bilingual professional photographer to capture the spectacular summer fireworks festivals held along Osaka's rivers and harbours. Participants learn long-exposure and timing techniques specifically developed for hanabi photography, using tripods and remote shutter releases at pre-scouted optimal locations. Sessions run alongside major festivals such as the Yodogawa Hanabi Taikai and include pre-festival instruction, a light meal, and post-event image review. The workshop is suitable for photographers at all levels, from smartphone users to DSLR enthusiasts.
