Pictures!

OK, so I'm finally getting to the end of all the pictures. From the cropping and adjusting experience with photoshop I have learned two things:

a) when I take a picture, it is almost always 1 degree off the horizontal (clockwise)
b) we desperately need to get a digital camera

That being said, some of the pictures we took turned out really nicely. I've decided to post a few of my favorites here in case you don't feel like going through the 60 some odd pictures I've got at Deviantart.


I think this is a lion - they are on the corners of the shrine's roofs.



Ha! The warrior has Toby on the run!



Throw the rings onto the pins for a long life. Toby got 2/3, most of mine ended up on the ground. Go figure.



Apart from Toby's aunt's breakfast, the best of the weekend...er...apart from the buffet breakfast the next day...



Nikko has amazing trees. Lots of cedars, but I don't think this is one.



Kawaii desu yo! Toby's cousin's daughter.



Toby's family sans Toby. Hiromi, Teruo, Mitsue, Obaa-san, me, from left to right.
