A photo session was held in Matsukawa Village, Nagano Prefecture. 14 people, ranging from residents in their 50s to 80s, visited the venue.
Katsumi Ushikoshi (83) appeared for the photo shoot wearing a crested hakama for his hobby of rakugo. With approximately one in three people in the prefecture being elderly, the need for acceptable photographs of the deceased is increasing. This is the second time since last year that the Community Revitalization Cooperation Volunteers have held a photo session.
