From Above at the Nagasaki Peace Museum, Article in Japan Times

Sunday, July 4th, 2010

..June 2010 Nagasaki..

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.

Ms. Kazuyo Funato

Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010

..March 2010.. ..New York..

My portrait of Ms. Kazuyo Funato is being used by CBC documentaries. She is featured on an episode of Love, Hate, and Propaganda, about the Tokyo Fire Bombings.

I was fortunate to photograph her for the From Above exhibition. An amazing experience.
