She wanted to tell her story of surviving the 3\/10 fire bombing of Tokyo to an atomic bomb Survivor.  <\/p>\n<p>Hibakusha Mr. Tsunenari agreed meet Ms. Nihei in Nagasaki.  It was an amazing moment to see them listen and exchange stories.  Tragic moments in time that changed their lives instantly.  <\/p>\n<p>It was the highlight of my trip to Nagasaki.  I was proud the exhibition was shown at the Nagasaki Peace Museum.  But to see the feelings of Ms. Nihei, it&#8217;s what I want From Above to be about.  A project that eclipses my photos and allows others to reach out to one another.  Seeing Mr. Tsunenari listen to and accept Ms. Nihei&#8217;s story of the 3\/10 Tokyo fire bombings was moving.  I believe it was a great feeling of relief to Ms. Nihei to be able to share her story.  <\/p>\n<p>Many of the 3\/10 Survivors don&#8217;t get the recognition as others.  The event is swept away as a side note in the history books and society.  On March 10, 1945 more people died in Tokyo, during one night, than in both atomic bombings combined.    <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaa5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaa5.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"1aaa\" width=\"350\" height=\"533\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3012\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaa.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaa.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"1aaaa\" width=\"400\" height=\"268\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3013\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaa.jpg 400w, http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaa-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaaa.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaaa.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"1aaaaa\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3014\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaaa.jpg 400w, http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/1aaaaa-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/p>\n<p>  var _gaq = _gaq || [];\n  _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-12680478-1']);\n  _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);<\/p>\n<p>  (function() {\n    var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text\/javascript'; ga.async = true;\n    ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
