The Japan Foundation, Los Angeles, will be offering a workshop related to our photo exhibition "Ganbare! Japanese Athletes on the World Stage." It will teach new and amateur photographers how to take dynamic sports photos.
The instructor will be Mark Edward Harris, the photographer for the exhibition. In addition, we will invite two Karate practitioners, Shohei Yamamoto and Miruyo Ito, from Kyokushin Karate of Los Angeles as subjects.
Participants are asked to bring their own camera. A 35mm camera or even a smartphone is fine.
Why not take this opportunity to learn the tricks of the trade from a professional photographer on how to capture the vivid movements of athletes?
