I Never Knew Ya
I will be truly and deeply sorry to leave behind the unexpected moments of beauty I've encountered throughout the city of Tokyo.
I have a love affair with the Tokyo subway system. Larger version here.
Another photo of shoppers in Ginza. I like the way the Canon SD900 lends an almost painterly quality to the photo -- well, that and my complete inability to hold a camera steady. Advanced anti-shake and auto-focus technology can only correct for so much.
The pic above is just a small section of a towering sculpture that graces the staircase of the old Mitsukoshi Department Store in Nihonbashi. It's breathtaking in its detail, color and size, and I wouldn't want to be anywhere near it during an earthquake.
ADDENDUM:
Don't know if this is an issue that other Mac bloggers face, but there's a noticeable color difference in the way Firefox and Safari display photos. I originally posted this last entry on Safari (because Safari includes a handy spell-checker), then pulled up Firefox to check for any cross-browser problems. The Firefox browser appears to drain some of the color from the photos, while Safari retains the warmth of the original palette . . . but then, maybe that's just a Mac thing?
