I thought your reply was going to be an easy one half way thru the decoding process I seen smoke coming from my decoding ring. I think the ring blew a gasket. I will have to go back to the dollar store and buy a more powerful one.

Good luck with that. Their decoding rings are all in foreign languages. :cry:

Ok, I'll try English.

This was my attempt at Japanese using Google translate but when I tried reverse translate, as Jerry says, it thinks it's Swahili.

I was just trying to say my Japanese in not very good. Clearly! :lol:

Just a wild guess here, but I think most of us have already figured that out! :D

I've noticed that there are no photographers from Japan on the forum. People from Japan travel with there camera by there side and take a lot of photos. They are technically inclined. If there are any of you guys out there I would like to hear comments about photography. :roll: :thumbup: :roll: :thumbup:

I'm curious why you think Japanese people are technically inclined. If they're visiting this country as tourists, I would think they carry cameras because they want to take pictures. If I were visiting Japan, I'd certainly bring a camera. Do you suppose they'd think I were technically inclined if they saw me?

Not in that plane you're flying in your avatar - especially with a dog as your copilot. :D

After looking at your plane and picture I would say yes.I want to add some smiley faces but I can't find them on quick reply.

I'm from Japan but have been living in the USA for a while now.. and I love photography. \( ^^)/
My only comment would be: I don't think it makes a difference where you are from, as long as you enjoy what you are doing where you are!

I have just come back from living in japan. The Japanese are very precise and professional with there photography. As in this country, there is a distinct difference between a tourist taking pictures and a professional photographer working his trade. By the way, a great many of the Japanese Photographers do speak English and some speak many languages. If they were to join this forum I do not think they would use kanji, hiragana or katakana.
