Photography Practice Walk in Tokyo - Theme #4: Fisheye lens

Theme #4: Fisheye lens

I want to try another format, this time focused on shooting with a fisheye lens in the city.

The theme is simple: bring your fisheye and lean into distortion.
The goal isn’t “beautiful photos,” but training your eye to see how differently the city feels through a fisheye.

We’ll create an Instagram group DM and share photos from the session there.

⚠️ Important Note 1
This is not a photography lesson or workshop. Please make sure you already know how to use your camera and basic exposure/focus settings. There will be no technical instruction during the event.

⚠️ Important Note 2
For this series of photowalks, we’ll always shoot in Shibuya.
The location stays the same on purpose. By returning to the same streets each time and changing only the constraint (lens, theme, or approach), we train our eyes to see the same place differently—instead of relying on new locations for inspiration.

🗓 Event Outline
Area: Shibuya
Meeting time: 7:00 PM
Meeting point: Cafe Veloce (about a 5-minute walk from Shibuya Station, slightly away from the busiest areas)
Wrap-up: 9:00 PM
After: Drinks / izakaya nearby for anyone who wants to join
If you are late, DM me on instagram.

This isn’t a long walk. If the group gets large, we’ll split into smaller groups so it’s easier to move around—especially in busy areas like Shibuya. We’ll regroup at the original meeting point at the end.

📷 Shooting Rules (Very Loose)

• You’re free to take any photos you want
• But please bring your fisheye lens
• If you don't have fisheye lens, but you want to join the event, that's fine too.

No pressure, no competition—just experimenting, learning, and seeing how differently everyone notices the city.
If this works well, we’ll keep the format and change the constraint each time (size, distance, color, theme, etc.).
