  The first 3 shots were taken at Mt. Mitake on July 17th - a spotted campanula, an Indian Pipe and a "Tsukabana". |

  In this row all 3 shots are by Kazuya, he's the one who has the gift for being able to take the good Insect pictures, not me. The first shot shows 2 Sawyer Beetles doing something strange. The 2nd shot is a "Tiger's Tail" (translation of Japanese common name) and the 3rd shot is a magnificent shot of a dragonfly. |

  All 3 shots here were taken on July 17th when we went to Mt. Hinode (902 meters = 2,959 feet) to camp out. First shot is a nice flower, 2nd shot is a shot of a thunderhead building up off to the west of us (we got a few drops of rain out of it was all) and the 3rd shot is Kazuya on the summit marker. |

  The first shot here is me on the Mt. Hinode summit marker. The 2nd shot is a nice cloud off to the EAST at sunset time and the 3rd shot is another nice Kazuya butterfly photo. |

  The first 2 shots are sunrise on July 18th. The 3rd shot is yet another dragonfly picture by Kazuya. This shot is amazingly clear! |

  The first shot in this row is the entrance of Tsuru-tsuru hot spring, where we went on the way down Mt. Hinode. A very nice hot spring that we have visited before. The next shot is a fireworks frame taken out of a fireworks movie I took. This was on July 23rd within bicycling distance from our house. Obviously we didn't go to the "designated" viewing area - if we had, then there would not be electrical wires in the way! The 3rd item here is a 4.17 MB FIREWORKS MOVIE - think before you click here. |
