Photography point: NIL, if they are following Aso's health-care advice i may give them 1+ point.

Is that photo taken with one of those nifty shoe cameras? I hear you can get some pretty interesting angles...

These trees can really stink at times. A very unpleasant smell for sure.

Son: Ahhh, the hone - tatmae thing.

Dad: Exactly, look at the pretty trees.

Beautiful color! I am going to try and catch the last of the foliage here in the Kobe area tomorrow.

The trees look nice, though I wonder how they got a pic from that angle
