Thank you very much everyone always stoped and give me comments. And if you not leave comment here but I really appreciate you thank you all.
I really want to make foreign country friends scince from I was young children and I came Canada and living here now. Just few day before I wrote in my diary same story but I want to say again :D

When I was kid about 30years ago, We can't expectation like this the Interet wold. In those time I enjoyed BCL and N.Amerian/European and other country TV/Movies and I got something different feeling in 70's. It was kind of dreamy feel for me :) Of cours I didn't understand foreign country language even English too :) but it was OK !! just a feeling :)
Anyway after 30years now I could talk so many foreign country people though the Photography. This is very ideal and great communication. Sometime we can't speak each other language but Art is don't need language :D

I'm so exciting every time when talk to someone. My feeling still 30years ago kid :)
Thank you again everyone(aminus3 too) and Happy new year !!

H.O

P.S (especially to Micki :-) )
My son took me last winter this picture. I never take self portrait by myself before because I'm looking no good :D If I'm looking cool (like a Duncan :)) then I'll show you picture already. LOL

Hey Hiro! You 'out-cool' me by a million miles mate! I needed a lot of processing to prevent people recoiling in terror and never visiting my site again! I talk to Shadow and Stu often about your blog (often over a nice glass of Asahi Super Dry) and the stuff you've produced this year is simply wonderful, your work is held in the highest regard indeed. I'm proud to be part of a community which has you as a member. All the best for the New Year, Shin nen akemashite omedoto gozaimasu!

初めまして！ひろさんはかっこいいですね。来年もよろしくお願いします。 Hiro, It really is amazing to enjoy the Internet like this and meet friends and photographers from around the world. Never even a dream when we were children, eh? Keep going slowly in 2007. people can take away your time and your money, but they can never take away your style!

That appreciation and love of life shines through your photography and your words. You are a very special person H.O., and I look forward to seeing more from you and learning more from and about you in '07!!

And you look so young, too!! Thanks for posting this great shot your son took.

ao from tokyo, Japan

H.Oさん、これはまさに“今年を振り返って”という具合でいいですね！
息子さんがこれを撮られてるという、その親子の構図もいいと思えます。
しかし、H.Oさんったら、まるで青年じゃないですか〜（ほんの一年前でしょ？これ…）。
H.Oさんの撮られる写真と同じく、どこか“時が止まったまま”のよ〜な・・・（笑）。
（帽子だけでなく、ご自身も［A］じゃないですか！！）

1 Jan 2007 5:14am

@ao: あ、、ａｏさん～！駄目じゃないですか～英語で言ってくれなきゃ～青年だなんて・・（爆）
いや、僕、、頭薄いから帽子かぶってごまかしています（爆）現実の僕を知っている人が「嘘つき～！！」って言ってますよ（笑）
でも夢もなきゃ～ね～（笑）この形相だったら酒屋でいつもＩＤ（身分証明）出せと言われます。複雑ですが（笑）
時を止めたいのは、本当ですね！！（＾＾

この写真は、上におりますミッキーと言うアメリカのフォトグラファーが昔の写真ブログからずっと一日も欠かさず温かいコメントをくれていまして、彼女が時々ポートレート見せてくれ！ってお願いされてました（＾＾；
・・・でついにそのお礼と、ここのブログを始めてから更に多くの方々と知り合えたのでそのお礼にです（＾＾）
彼女は、とっても素敵なお母さんで素敵なフォトグラファーです（＾＾
