We have never had this much help with an installation. Makes me very happy to see the entire museum staff wanting to help and being a part of the project. A lot of hard work and a lot of smiles.
Never had an installation completed so quickly. One day. Helps when you have 8 people unpacking the boxes, unwrapping the frames, hanging wire and frames, going up and down ladders, preparing the text, etc..

Biggest thanks to Izumi for the years of support. Many thanks to all the staff at the Nagasaki Peace Museum, the Nagasaki Peace Wing, and Community Media who helped make this happen. Will and Sue, my family in The Kingdom of Gamo.
Not sure if many realize the months of work put into an exhibition like this. Without the big hearts of everyone involved there would be no project or exhibition.
Here is a couple of minutes, from the hours/days of preparing the actual exhibition. The installation is always the toughest part.
Nothing was broken, no one was injured, and I didn’t spill anything.

Article written in The Japan Times about the opening of From Above photography exhibition at the Nagasaki Peace Museum.
Ironically the article and photo are twice the size and above a story on the Japanese Prime Minister’s trip to the G20 Summit and the death of Japan’s oldest koala.
