I don't tend to hunt around for picture online, however, on the Tokyo theme, this one from a guy called Bal I know in the gaming scene really appealed to me:




...also I should p1mp my own galleries (things, places) at my site =).

Every time I see that pic stu, I think two things 1) You jammy get 2) It could really do with a bit of creative cropping esp the top and right sides.

That bottom on is one of Galen Rowell's. The guy is awesome check his website here http://www.mountainlight.com/ or go to the gallery for a few hours if you are in Bishop. His photography books are superb too.
