I'd like to take a moment to highlight the Japan side of things going on. I admit I don't take as many pictures as I should, particularly when friends ask what I've been up to. It's a combination of typically not carrying around a camera on me and unique things becoming normal the longer I'm here.
There are however a number of great photo blogs about Japan online and my particular favorite is Tokyo Times.
The blogger/photographer behind Tokyo Times, Lee Chapman, has a tendency to take pictures uncommon even for us expats. Sure, there's the occasional fun Engrish shot (most recently this great find) but by and large his photos highlight the unseen, underappreciated sights of life in Japan. He takes candid shots of Tokyo inhabitants going about their daily lives that are my personal favorites, and explores ruined places for a glimpse at a Japan recently passed.
If you're interested to see what day-to-day life is like in this country, I highly recommend going to Tokyo Times.

I would rather see it from your P.O.V, Fred.
........but I took a look at these links and the guy does photograph some great finds.
Thanks, Stuart. I will try to take more pictures (and upload the ones I have taken). I should have some great ones from Seoul next week.
