The theme of the April issue is "My Identity with Camera. What I want to convey through photos."

Rather than focusing on the "photograph" alone, we focus on the thoughts of the "person" (the photographer) and close up on "why" to take a photograph, rather than "how" to take a photograph.

We delved into the worlds that artists and creators from Japan and abroad want to capture through their lenses, and what they want to convey through the medium of photography. What exactly is photography? The answer is here.
