1. LET THE PICTURE TALK: YOU TALK TO THE PICTURE. (This is why I like photography.)
2. CREATIVE COMMONS ROCKS. (Scroll down and read my policy.)

CREATIVE COMMONS ROCKS.
ALMOST ALL OF my pictures are Creative-Commons lisenced (attribution, non-commercial), so feel free to use mine, as long as the picture is CC licensed, for your non-profit blogs, websites, art projects, etc. Credit me as "nofrills" because this is the online name I've been using for years.

No need to ask me if you are non-commercial/non-profit, or your business is just enough to support yourself and your family. I'd be happy if you could let me know (via comment or flickr mail). But please remember: Flickr Terms of Service specify that if you post a Flickr photo on an external website, the photo must link back to its photo page. ;)

Just in case you want to use my photos for commercial purposes, such as on a corporate website, on a business leaflet and so on, let me know beforehand - flickr mail should work, but I'm afraid it is possible that I'm away and not available for weeks for no apparent reason.

As for the caption/description on my photo stream: if you find it useful, use it. I'm a professional writer (in Japanese) and I don't upload anything that I don't want others to copy and distribute for free of charge. ;-) But please be advised that there may be an error or two (or more) on my web writing: I don't check the facts and English grammar/spelling (fix them when you copy!) as I do with my work. I will take no responsibility for your use of my writing (and photo).

ABOUT ME
Born and raised up in Japan. Living in Japan. Have a Japanese passport. I've been speaking Japanese since I was a baby. In a word, I'm a Japanese. And I use English too. I'm a professional translator/writer.

Became a Flickr user in October 2004 (the first few uploads). Bought my first digital camera (Olympus Camedia C-770UZ) at the time.

I started flickr-ing because I wanted to show how Tokyo looks, especially to my friends who have never been here.

Haven't got any training on photography. Haven't got a tripod (always hand-held). Haven't got a knowledge of lighting. Often careless. Often have difficulty with my camera.

Been to: England (for months: stayed in Hackney, Harringey, Kilburn, etc), but never been to Scotland, Wales and Northen Ireland. :-(

Native language: Japanese.
日本語はぺらぺらです。;-)
