National Museum Bangkok
First batch of photos is up. These are not the photos that Mrs. Jarunee is supplying us with. She gave a broad spectrum of sword types in her database so I arranged with her to let us back in to take some more ourselves, dha specific. Let me publicly thank both Mrs. Jarunee, the Curator and Mr Somchai, the Director, for their unhesitating help in our research. Their cordial welcome and willingness to bend their schedules amidst a complete remodel of their offices was exceptional hospitality. I thank you both!
Additionally I must thank Mike Ngyuen. Mike is a regular over on SFI and we linked up in Bangkok where he is going to school. Mike picked up my slack when I couldn't get back to Bangkok for the photo shoot. He stepped into an unfamiliar situation performing over and above what would normally be expected from even the best of friends. He picked up the database, took the photos, and spent what I'm sure was a substantial amount of his own time editing and putting together this gallery. Here's the link. National Museum dha/darb photos Mike please let me know if you have any problems with us capturing some of these photos. I already see some that I would like to use in a future post. This gallery will be even more important after we have the database. ENJOY! |
