Sorry to say that after several months of activity in fall 2004 to spring 2005, I have suspended my activities at Wikipedia. My most significant written contributions were the Tokyo, History of Tokyo, and Shiga Prefecture articles. See my image contributions below.

My Web sites:

• http://photojpn.org/ PhotoGuide Japan: A guide to photography in Japan
• http://photoguide.jp/ Thousands of photos of Japan and articles about Japan.
• http://shiga-ken.com/ Photos and articles about Shiga Prefecture, Japan
• http://www.youtube.com/photojpn My Japan video clips
