Most of the photographs on these webpages were taken by my friend, S. Shiozaki, and myself. In addition, photographs contributed by other collaborators are also used, with the copyright holder’s name indicated where applicable. If you wish to use photographs provided by other copyright holders, please contact them directly. I do not act as an intermediary. If you wish to use my photographs, please contact me by email beforehand. Unauthorized reproduction is strictly prohibited. If you use any photographs without permission, I will issue a warning and may request your internet service provider to remove the infringing material from your website or blog.
