There's some video too, which will require a bit more editing to make it presentable... The problem with trying to take photos of people climbing some of those mountains is often simply.... there is no-one else apart from me! I tend to chose routes and conditions precisely to avoid meeting people :-) I’ll try to get the snowshoe post up in the next couple of days – just want to get clearance from the people involved to use their photos.

The next people post will be of girls at coming of age day from this past Monday. Your scenery and landscape shots are amazing though, but I would of course like to see some people shots of them actually doing what it takes to climb those mountains. Looking forward to seeing the snowshoe-ers! Thanks a lot Chris. The next people post will be of girls at coming of age day from this past Monday.

Still, the "Faces of Tokyo" series inspired me - I guided a group snowshoeing in the back country of Togakushi, Nagano last weekend, and forced myself to take photos of them too (rather than shoot scenery, which is my usual proclivity). I've a long way to go though... I’ve said it before, but I’m in awe of anyone who can take good people-shots.

Shimo must be a nice place to live. Yeah, I'll still be posting from the U.S., I have a bit of archived material so I'll still be able to post about Japan for some time and after that I'll move on to whatever's next. Let me know when you are in the market for a camera again! Thanks Billy. Shimo must be a nice place to live.
