I wanted to create something that people could look at and think &#8220;oh that&#8217;s&#8230;!&#8221; if they have been there or &#8220;what is that?&#8221; if they hadn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>It was great talking to people on the night. Scott (who lived in Japan for some time) said something like &#8220;it&#8217;s like you have picked my brain for memories&#8221; and many people expressed that certain photos were &#8220;structured and layered, yet natural&#8221; or &#8220;very modern&#8221; or &#8220;very traditional&#8221;&#8230; which is how I feel about Japan. There is a story behind each piece, and I&#8217;ll be free today to talk more about them.<\/p>\n<p><em>Simon manned the exhibition yesterday and it was very quiet, so please drop by for a little while today!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Today is also that last day that we will be processing sales at the venue, so it&#8217;s also a good day to stop by if you are interested in purchasing any of our pieces (mine or Simon&#8217;s).<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Update<\/strong>: Left a little early because YMCA wanted to closed up (sorry if we missed you!).<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is the last day that I will be manning the Snapshot Exhibition, so it&#8217;s a good day to stop by and check out my of photos of Japan!
