Hello Luggers,

We have been in Tokyo for the last few days, visiting our son,  
Russell, who works here and taking in the sights. Russ's apartment is  
located in Chiba Koan very near to the Zojoji Temple so naturally we  
spent some time there and were fortunate to stumble upon a monks'  
graduation ceremony which had lots of colour for photographs. We also  
visited the gardens of the Imperial Palace to view the blossoms  
there. Here are the pictures taken with the M8 and one of the  
following lenses, the 90 Elmarit, the 50 Lux Asph, and the Konica 21  
- 35. Details given in the captions to the photos. Please enjoy,

Comments welcome as always.

Cheers,
Howard (heading back to Hong Kong tomorrow)
