A way for me to communicate across the ocean and to try to put what I see everyday in Japan down in words and pictures. Here is Japan.

    I haven't been to Nikko in a long time - too long in fact.But I was taking a trip through my pictures the other day and I thought this picture of a torii would make a good picture to put through a new filter I bought called Fractalius. I shelled out ...

    I took this picture either in 2003 or 1996. I took it on a disposable camera, and there wasn't a date on it.I like it except for the glare on the temple, so I tried to fix that.Still not what I'd hoped - I thought tone mapping would bring out some mo...

    One of the first pictures I ever took in Japan back in 2003. I edited it some, but it looks like I'll need to go a bit further to remove the halo around the trees. I like this because I think the picture itself looks dated.Thank you for subscribing!...

    A few months ago I took a picture of a house I pass to get to school. I love this house and now that the cold is starting to roll down the mountains, interesting things are happening.I don't know if the second is technically and HDR image, but I real...

    A few weeks ago I went to a city just west of Sendai called Tagajo. There isn't much there to talk about, but there is the ruins of a castle that looked like it was more of a huge house.While there I took the following picture.It's not bad, but I imp...

    Not having my camera has gotten me into editing my older pictures. One effect i really like is called tilt shifting. It should be done with aerial photography, but who has those?...

    This was taken from the 8th floor of the media center in Sendai. The city library is in the same building on the 3rd floor. I like how this is above all the trees on Jozenji Street....

    This house is on my way to work. It lies in a valley next to a stream and is surrounded by rice fields. This is a stereotype if I've ever seen one. I'd love to live here though. I often think about the 5-minute walk to work instead of my 40-minute bu...
