Thanks for stopping by. Here are some photos from my time in Japan. Please have a look and feel free to leave a comment. If you click the "feeds" button at the bottom of this page, robots will let you know whenever I add more pictures. Hope you enjoy, -Paul P.S. If you like looking at photos online, Safari's default settings give you the most consistent colors. Internet Explorer users are out of luck, since even IE8 isn't color managed. If you use Firefox 3 like me, your web photo viewing experience will improve if you turn on color management as explained here: http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/content_page.asp?cid=7-9311-9478 http://cabledetached.smugmug.com/Mostly-Places/Western-Hokkaido/20070807-200708070751copy/213490436_vEC23-Ti.jpg http://cabledetached.smugmug.com/popular/ 2010-01-06T13:47:57Z Copyright 2010, the copyright holder of each photograph.
