Shinmaruko, Kanagawa

From the moment I arrived in Japan in August of 1961, I was totally fascinated by the lifestyle of the Japanese. I fell in love with the buildings, the streets, the lanterns, and of course, the people. I developed a love for Japan that will remain in my heart as long as I live. There are memories of friends I love that still warm my heart, mind and spirit. I felt at home in Japan; I admired the Japanese character and propriety, their respect and polite attitudes. In my mind, Japan remains a memory that I would have missed had I not spent three years in Kanagawa area.

yOUR WORK...has a soul with heartbeats. I truly admire your work and find it difficult to stop viewing your work once I begin. Thank you for sharing your most unique talent and creative art through photography. Editor
