David Leong is a comic artist with an intense interest in Japanese Animations. This interest resulted in David being selected to represent the city of Concord, California as a teacher and good-will ambassador to ConcordÕs sister city of Kitakami, Japan. Over the next two and a half years in the rural north of Japan, David traveled widely and always carried at least one camera. He carefully recorded the wonders of Japan as he saw them. From the northernmost island of Hokkaido, to the tragic memorials of Hiroshima in the south of the main Island, David sought out the beautiful, the garish, the traditional, and the rampant modernity that makes Japan such a fascinating and occasionally frustrating place to live.
