Sorry, no long photo walk post today, am literally falling sleep as I'm writing this. So instead of the photo walk, here's a seagull and a squirrel. Took these back in May of 2006.
Nighty night now!

My oh my, 5 whole posts with 30+ images in each post to just publish a single photo walk, and thats considering that I'm posting maybe only a half of the photos I take. Lets start this post, with a very large construction site!

One of the bad things about going out and taking a ton of good photos in one day, is that you want to share all those photos, yet you really can't share them all a once, at least without making 30-40MB posts with hundreds photos in a row. So I'm kinda stuck separating photo walks like this into 4-5 posts different posts. But anyway, starting at the gas/service station where I left off in yesterday's post.

It's pretty interesting how all sorts of styles are randomly mixed and matched, no coherence of any kind. I must say, I really like it this way, at least there's something to look at. Just take a look at the photo above, an extremely modern looking box, standing to a wooden house in the very traditional Japanese style.

Usually I post all my photos in chronological order, just in the order in which I took them, but for this post, lets start a little bit out of order, lets start with a very customized pimped-out and very very shiny Honda Elysion. After-market rims, grill, bumpers, side skirts, cover-things on the headlights and everything polished to an almost mirror-like finish.

Oh my, haven't done this in a while... Hopefully I still remember how to do this! ^_^; But anyway, as promised yesterday, over the next month or so, gonna finish up posting all the photos I took in Nagoya, Japan during the time I was there. There aren't too horribly much of them left, but they should last me another month or so. Oh and keep in mind, that the reason for some of these photos looking so gloomy and not very green, is because I took them back in January! Either way, enjoy!.
Now back to the photos of Japan

Ain't it funny... in my very own header, the subtitle promises "...and photos of Japan", yet I haven't posted a single Japan related photo in well, months now. Now that I'm done with posting all the Mexican photos, I think its time to get back to finishing posting the photos of Japan that I still have left in my archives. Not too horribly much of them left, but I should be able to fill at least another 20-30 posts with 20-30 photos in each. And while I'm sure some of my older visitors have seen all those posts, and bugged me time, and time again to post more of them, in the last month or so, I've gained a ton of new visitors, so for them, for you guys, just a quick rundown of all the Japan-related posts I posted.
The 'Around the Neighborhood' series - focuses mostly on just the smaller streets around the less busy parts of town.
- Around the neighborhood 1
- Around the neighborhood 2
- Around the neighborhood 3
- Around the neighborhood 4
- Around the neighborhood 5
- Around the neighborhood 6
- No number 7 as 7 was the Michigan neighborhood.
- Around the neighborhood 8
- Around the neighborhood 9
- Around the neighborhood 10
The 'Around the City' series - focuses more on the big city, though honestly am not really a huge fan of how its turning out - really need to somehow unify the 'city' and 'neighborhood' posts.
Misc posts - just a few posts which fit into neither the 'city' nor the 'neighborhood' series.
- Leopalace21 - Part 1
- Leopalace21 - Part 2
- Bicycles in Japan
- Snow in Nagoya
- Fat raccoons with large balls
- Kiyosu Castle
- Kongourinji
- Holiday Decorations
- Random Night Shots
- LX3 Photo Walk
- January 5th Night Shoot - Part 1
- January 5th Night Shoot - Part 2
Little by little I'm also updating the older posts to the new image size - 1000px wide, up from the old 750px, but given that I basically have to re-do everything by hand, its taking... a while. But I'll be keeping you all updated on the status of that upgrade via Facebook and Twitter.
Anyway, starting either tomorrow, or in a few days, depending on my schedule, will go back to finishing up posting all those photos of Japan that I still haven't posted so keep tuned or something or other.

This will be the last Mexican post, well, the last for now, at least until I go back, hopefully sooner then later. In this post, just wanted to post share a few more photos I took but which didn't really fit into any of the other posts, so enjoy.

It really is damn sad how the best things always happen right before time runs out. Also hate the last day of vacations, when you just find all the awesome things you can still do, the time runs out. Mix those two together, and you're feeling like shit for the next 3 weeks.

Sadly, this is the last of the night shoots. This was actually not the last day there, but for the last 3 days that I was there I was walking around in a half-asleep, zombie state, so sadly took almost no photos at all.
