Seriously, some of those photos are just unbelievably awesome both in terms of what you captured on film and in terms of your proficiency with the camera. Dude: I for one would love a baby torrent in the 50-to-100 MB range of some of these photos. Sample images:

I thank you for posting even the tiny sample-sized pics that you did. Absolutely beautiful.

Thanks folks, but I've been 'picture taking' as a hard hobby since 1997 and doing it for work since 2001. Personally I'm a lover of 'angles' hence so many angled images. As for putting together a torrent, firstly I'm not sure how to do that, secondly I'll do it if you don't mind huge water-marks going across the centers of each image.

The reason the images I'm posting are small is because they are the re-sized images from my Flickr Account. If anyone wants to look at the rest, feel free to do so, username: Pozland

I had to look up おしゃれ, unfortunately. And ... assuming it is お洒落, that makes no sense whatsoever. O-o
