Yep, Japanese Santa just delivered a brand new Pentax *ist DS. He knew I already had a lens for it, so it was body only, and I already had some SD cards. Good thinking, Santa.

I went up to Nikko this afternoon ... I can't really post many pics at the moment as they would give away my challenge entry.

But this is one from a famous old hotel. Can you see the famous person's name who stayed there just over 82 years ago?


One thing about the *ist DS is the minimum size of images is 1536x1024 pixels. I shall have to invest in a bigger SD card.

Philip, I'm thinking of 10 or 11 January, Seijin no Hi at Meiji Jingu.

It is very hard to read and determine who you are referring to as the famous person. I am just guessing, but was it Albert Einstein?

Yes. Who knew he came to Japan way back then? I didn't.

David,

What are you doing in Japan? I went to school there in the mid-70s and found it to be a wonderful experience that I still charish to this day.

Cheers,
Michael

I can't read it. It's written in Romaji or some other strange script.
