On Saturday morning, Aya and Mika were preparing a photo exhibit in the city hall lobby.
。
The two of them had ended up helping with a small exhibit that introduced the four seasons of the area.
、。
The venue was not large, but it was a place that easily caught the eye whenever people passed by.
、。
First, they lined the photographs up on the desk and checked which order was easiest to look at.
。
In the spring photos, children playing under the cherry blossoms were shown.
。
In the summer photos, the lights of the night festival that had been held by the riverside remained beautifully captured.
「」。
Mika said, "It would be better to put the photos with strong colors near the entrance."
、。
Aya thought so too, but they also had to consider the balance with the explanatory panels.
、。
So the two of them tried combinations that stood out when seen from far away again and again.
、、「」。
After a little while, the person in charge, Yamaguchi-san, came and said, "Please leave the walkway a little wider."
、。
People who use wheelchairs would also pass through, so it meant it was better to leave more room than before.
、。
After hearing that explanation, Aya decided to move the desk position back a little.
、。
Mika remade the labels to place under the photos and made the letters larger than before.
、、。
However, only the explanation for the autumn photo was too long and did not fit on a single label.
「、」。
Yamaguchi-san advised, "You can leave only the important information and put the rest on a separate sheet."
、。
When they tried doing it just as he had said, the readability became much better.
、。
Around the time it became close to noon, people who had come to the lobby on errands stopped and started looking.
「」。
One elderly woman said, "This reminds me of when the town's river was this beautiful."
、。
Hearing that one comment, the two felt that there was meaning in doing this even while still in the middle of preparing.
、。
However, they found out that one small stand for setting up the winter photo was missing.
、。
Aya tried to go get one from the storage room, but Yamaguchi-san brought a spare one for them.
、。
Thanks to that, the exhibit took shape earlier than planned, and they were able to spend time on the fine adjustments.
、。
Finally, the two of them walked slowly from the entrance to the exit and checked once more how it looked.
「、」。
Before leaving, Yamaguchi-san said, "Thinking from the standpoint of the people who will look at it is the most important thing."
、、。
Aya learned that it is necessary not only to simply arrange things, but also to think about how they will be conveyed.
