THE BEST NEWS OF ALL

 

There is an astounding new web site operated by John Resig.

If properly utilized it could bring on

A GOLDEN AGE IN THE STUDY OF JAPANESE WOODBLOCK PRINTS!

No lie. Many of you may already know of it, but for those of you who don't

it will rock your world. It will revolutionize this field of research for both dilettantes and scholars.

 

Here is the link. Go there, start exploring, and be amazed.

EVERY FEW MONTHS WE ADD MARKERS TO

INDICATE RECENT ADDITIONS OF BOTH TEXT AND/OR IMAGERY

 This image of a dead end sign - in negative form -

was taken by Ben Peyronnin in the Freemont district of Seattle.

We altered it considerably so we aren't sure he would want to claim it.

That said, it will be used to mark additions to our site from May thru August 2013.

 This detail of the fruit of a Korean dogwood tree was taken

by my friend Evan Black. It was used

from January thru April 2013. The nighttime picture of the  ferris wheel  was also

taken by my friend Ben Peyronnin. It was used in October, November and December of 2012.

The wallpaper on this page is from a

photo taken at the Nitobe Memorial Garden

at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver,

B.C. It was shot by my good friend, Evan Black, 

in late April, 2012. He says it was the

camera, but I say it is the user.
