My Photos of Japan
The photos I took when I was in Japan were accepted by the mayor of Sendai, a few years ago, and are now housed in the Sendai City Museum of History and Folklore. Part of the reason for this is that during the war years, the people did not have cameras or couldn't afford them and/or processing film costs, so the city was anxious to see some of the photos or have them to display to editors or just individuals who wanted to see what the good old days were like. So my photos are housed in this museum and visitors can ask to see the pictures I took and they will show them. They often display them in the museum in cases and hanging on the walls as shown in this photo they supplied to me.

I think this is just wonderful. I was so afraid they were destroyed in the tsunami. I'm so proud to know you. And because of you, I love Sendai.
