There were lots of participants who showed up at the event as the organizers of the said photowalk opened the event to non Fujifilm users as well. The mechanics were discussed at the beginning and all of the photowalk leaders introduced themselves and told everyone where their final meetup point to submit the entries. All photowalk leaders formed a team and decided to venture anywhere in Manila. A photo essay contest was also instructed where the mechanics was to form a five man group and create a photo essay based from the theme. The theme of the photowalk was "Working Hands" and a separate theme for the photo essay was "Working Dad".
