Mt. Fuji
I took this photograph from a boat on Lake Ashi near Hakone. No cropping has been done to the image, but I did have my camera on 12X optical zoom. The sky was nice and clear (other than the few clouds shrouding the top of Fuji) as it had rained during the night before.

Wow! Great pic!!
I’m updating — tonight! I hope! So long as the writing goes well. Since returning, I’ve been sick, then consumed with planning a one-hour speech I had to give Friday. Now that that’s over (thank God!) it’s finally time to write the fun stuff.
It’s good to know people are waiting. Thanks for reading.
