Interesting to see such a photo from Japan, you can find almost the same articles in the oriental shops in Amsterdam. Roger, a nice panorama view and beautiful sharpness and deatils. Regards, Rob.
Thanks, Antonella. I should have taken some closeups for the details... I'm visiting this place again today, with the same friend, for the cherry blossoms. Perhaps I'll take another...
As for the new site, well, it got off to a bad start but I am getting to like it more and more as the Beta versions click up from 1.1 to 1.2, to 1.3. The method they have chosen to use for the site software will free them to change the design very easily in future; technically it is a big step forward. (I'm in this business, so I know a bit of what is going on...)
