Wow I wish I could wander up those stairs, looks inviting. Unfortunately I can’t use the DT pic (it’s too small) boo..
I like your pictures btw, It makes me want to visit. :)

Nils,
same here….why don’t you make a 1024×768 version too?
shameless plug here:
I have some wallpapers of some Japan images I took last year in both 1152×870 and 1024×768 sizes (but no 800×600 size, natch!), here.

I will scan it bigger when I find the print again, but I should take a digital pic next time. I think I took this in 1997. Just after a rain is the best time, when the stones are wet they show their character. This is near my home, on the Eizan Dentetsu (railway). My train is a “one-man car”-type, you take a ticket like a bus, and pay the driver at the till in front. if you continue past my house and fully leave town, you wind between the foothills and the line ends at Kurama.

oh, it’s a scan!? i just assumed it was digital (and indeed, i was musing to myself, awfully beautiful pic for a digital shot….i love those small train lines, winding through towns…took one in Matsumoto a couple of months ago, and the Arakawa line in Tokyo is nice like this as well….you feel like you’re traveling in folks’ backyards.

The poor old Nikon and its equipment bag are gathering dust, sad to say. It deserves better. Many of my archive photos were taken with a lower-res (max 640×480, same as my new keitai cam!) Sony Mavica FD-75 (FD is for Floppy Disk, hence the low res). I was against memory sticks and flash cards, and mistakenly thought they would be a hassle. More recent photos are taken with 3.2 megapixel Sony Cybershot P-71.
