I published a book.
Title is 'unforgettable'.
Author name is Mitsushiro Nakagawa.
The book displays photographs and design around my novel.
My book has an ISBN code, and you can buy it at any bookstore nearby. Also it is available at the following site.
My book is synchronized with the web site.
A novel, photographs, an interview can be downloadable in PDF file format.
You can find Password and User ID in the book.
1.
As for the novel, originally I intended to release as a series in English. But actually the translation would require a quite time, thinking of 456pages in manuscript papers of 400 letters. At present, I must say it might be hard to upload an English version serially considering the translator's circumstances.
2.
As for photographs, more than 100 photographs that I have taken so far are edited again, and uploaded. These differ from the ones that had been uploaded to Flog, and all are original sizes. Moreover, I used to insert letters on photographs, but I deleted all of them.
Also I will upload three unedited photographs or more which I never up-load usually. These three are original photographs before using Photoshop.
You can personally confirm my editing technique. As for more than 100 photographs, I will pick up the ones which go along with the theme of the book,' unforgettable'.
3.
The following points were noted in the interview.
Method of photography, editing by Photoshop and exhibition method, etc
.In addition, writing method of novel is mentioned.
Method of photography, editing by Photoshop, how to create works (collage) which I have exhibited so far.
There was a common feature in these three points.
You know Leonardo da Vinci.
He was multi-talented.
I mentioned it because I was able to feel his versatility somehow after the result of all the expressions in various means so far.
Of course, because I am man far from Da Vinci, it might be different from his interpretation.
However, I left a note.
I also expressed my gratitude to people on Flog in the book.
I will stay on Flog forever as I mentioned it in the book.
I was born here, grew up, and was able to come to today. I sincerely appreciate it to many people of Flog all over the world and staffs of Flog.
Thank you so much.
1.1.2008.
Mitsushiro Nakagawa.

New to my neighbourhood is this magnificent young Chausie, a hybrid originally bred from the non domestic species Jungle cat (Felis Chaus) and a greater number of domestic cats (Felis Silvestris catus). This one is absolutely gorgeous, incredibly friendly and the single greatest predatory hunter I have ever witnessed in my garden, catching several mice in one sitting with consummate ease.
This is a brown ticked variant of the species that live to around 14 years and are highly intelligent, social and loving. Chausie kittens in the UK fetch between eight hundred and two thousand pounds each.

Photograph taken at an altitude of Fifty nine metres at 17:02pm on Sunday 13th July 2020 off Chessington Avenue in Bexleyheath, Kent.
The Grey (or Gray) squirrel, you either love 'em or you hate 'em. Cute and fluffy little funsters or destructive critters who ruin trees, kill bird chicks and trees and damage our homes... oh and it's their fault we lost our native Red squirrels as well!
OK
I get it and I see both sides of the story of course. For my part, I am a nature, wildlife and landscape photographer who prefers the company of animals and natural beauty to fellow humans who are systematically plundering Mother Earth's resources and killing off her beautiful creatures at an alarming rate! I believe there is a natural order of things, creatures kill other creatures to survive, they adapt to situations and when mankind encroaches on their territory to make a fast buck, those animals sometimes adapt to survive and the order changes.
That is the balance of nature which is ever changing and affected by us..... the dumbest of the great apes.
Some species are driven out by others, some may be destined to become extinct, the fittest will survive, and sometime a species will need intervention and help from mankind in order to survive... usually as a direct consequence of mankind's own actions in destroying the animal kingdom's natural habitat of course.
I adore these little fellas and at almost sixty years old, I never grew up knowing red squirrels at all. I've seen reds in Scotland and black squirrels in Stanley Park on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, but in my beloved home country of England I have always known and loved the cute little Greys. They visit my garden and give me hours, days, weeks of happiness and wonderful photographic opportunities, and I see them in Parks and forests all around me, so it's time to offer up an insight into the Grey squirrel, much loved, much hated... a sort of Marmite rodent if you will.
WHAT EXACTLY IS A SQUIRREL?
The word 'Squirrel', was first recorded in 1327 and hails from the Anglo-Norman word 'Esquirel', from old French 'Escurel', which was a reflex for the Latin word 'Sciurus'.The Eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) is also known as the Eastern Grey squirrel or simply grey squirrel depending on the region of the world it is found. It is a tree squirrel, of the squirrel family Sciuridae including over one hundred arboreal species native to all continents of the world other than Antarctica and Oceania. Tree squirrels live mostly in trees, apart from the flying squirrel. The best known genus is Sciurus, containing most of the bushy tailed squirrels which are found in Europe, North America, temperate Asia as well as central and south America.
The scientific classification for the Eastern Grey is:
KINGDOM: ANIMALIA PHYLUM: CHORDATA CLASS: MAMMALIA ORDER: RODENTIA FAMILY: SCIURIDAE GENUS: SCIURUS SUBGENUS: SCIURUS SPECIES: SCIURUS CAROLINENSIS
They were first noted by German naturalist, botanist, entomologist, herpetologist, and malacologist - Johann Friedrich Gmelin in 1788.
A mammal and rodent, predominantly herbivorous they are none the less an omnivore with a life span of between two and ten years. They can grow to 70cm in length and weigh up to 8kg. There are more than two hundred and sixty species of worldwide squirrel, the smallest being the African pygmy squirrel at just 10cm in length, whereas the Indian giant squirrel is three feet long! The oldest fossil of a squirrel, Hesperopetes, dates back to the late Eocene epoch period Chadronian period of 40-35 million years ago. The tree squirrels rotate their ankles by 180 degrees, so that the hind paws pointy backwards gripping tree bark which enables them to descend a tree headfirst.
Originally native to Eastern and Midwestern United States of America, they were first introduced into the United Kingdom in 1876 in Henbury Park, Macclesfield in Cheshire when Victorian banker Thomas V. Brocklehurst released a pair of Greys that he brought back from a business trip to America after their attraction as pets had waned. Victorians had a penchant for collecting exotic animals and birds of the world, but trends came and went and subsequently animals were simply discarded into the wilderness. There are early records of greys released near Denbighshire in north Wales from private collections. Later introduced to several regions in the UK, they quickly settled and spread, colonizing an area of three hundred miles in a quarter of a century between Argyll and Stirlingshire in Scotland.
Introductions of the Greys between 1902 and 1929 (the year of the last recorded introduction), included: Regent’s Park in London, Berkshire, Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, Devon, Warwickshire, Nottinghamshire, Suffolk and Hampshire. Grey Squirrels spread into Gloucestershire and eastern Wiltshire with animals coming directly from the United States or from Woburn. One hundred greys were released in Richmond Park in Surrey in 1902, Ninety one into Regent’s Park between 1905 and 1907 and a further ten New Jersey imported greys were introduced into Woburn Park in Bedfordshire.
Predators include hawks, weasels, raccoons, bobcats, foxes, domestic and feral cats, snakes, owls, and dogs, African harrier-hawks in Africa and... oh yes, Mankind pretty much everywhere who despise, mistreat, cull or eat it .
FACTS, MYTHS AND THAT POXY PARAPOX!
The massive decline in native red squirrels blamed upon the spread of the invasive greys has always been perhaps a little harsh as reds were already in a steep decline due to loss of habitat and disease and thus the greys simply took over the areas where the reds were dwindling. It's also a fact that reds were also seen as a plague, branded as pests who killed birds and damaged trees and the culling of reds almost brought them to the brink of extinction. Licenses to kill reds could still be obtained up until the seventies!
Reds suffered at the hands of mankind thanks to a combination of agricultural deforestation also linked with war and fuel needs which caused extinction in Southern Scotland and Ireland by the early eighteenth century, way before greys had been introduced. Harsh winters killed off the less hardy red population in the early nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Greys are more adept at finding food and adapting to locations and environments, but also carry the squirrel poxvirus (SQPV) which although not particularly harmful to them, is a serious infection for the reds.
Parapox in red squirrels causes swollen lesions around the mouth, eyes, ears and nose also the front paws and sometimes genitals and skin ulcers and kills a red within fifteen days. There is no definitive correlation between the spread of the virus and the spread of the Greys, it actually arrived in several areas before the greys began to colonize there. An epidemic virus was observed in Red squirrels from at least 1900 with isolation attempts failing, and the first case of Parapox in the UK was in 1980 in the county of Norfolk. Greys cannot transmit the virus to reds via saliva or faeces, but reds can between each other from bodily secretions and at animal feeders in gardens. The transmission from greys to reds is though to come from parasites. Eight to ten per cent of reds survive the virus, and there is some evidence that reds are slowly building an evolved resistance.
Greys are seen as pests to forest land, stripping bark from trees during May and June, and are also capable of destroying household bins, water pipes, causing roof damage not to mention taking eggs and killing young chicks of ground nesting and songbird populations. They also take from bird feeders and there is a whole industry for creating squirrel proof feeders these days.
THE CULLING OF GREY SQUIRRELS
Grey squirrels have limited legal protection and can be legally controlled all year round by a variety of methods including shooting and trapping. Methods of trapping and killing include Drey poking and shooting, Tunnel trapping using spring traps set in accordance with BASC’s trapping pest mammals code of practice. They can also be shot using a shotgun or powerful air rifle or up until September 30th 2014 poisoned by Warfarin (Now outlawed).
Whilst professional trapping and extermination is hopefully done as humanely as possible, there have been cases, many of them where cost savings have been gained by battering the squirrels to death! Grey squirrels are trapped in ghastly metal contraptions for hours and hours, wearing themselves out frantically trying to escape by gnawing at the metals bars. They bite the floor and scratch at them with their claws and do not get a moments peace or rest through absolute fear. Once the traps are retrieved, each squirrel, terrified will be thrown into a sack and smacked on the head countless times with a blunt instrument. When a mother is slaughtered, her babies who are totally dependent on her, will die a slow death of thirst and starvation.
There is an argument for the control of Greys on many grounds but also a counter argument that Culling does not work, and has not on countless times where, once a population of greys have been culled, the nearest group will move back in and claim the land. The university of Bristol concluded that there was little evidence that culling greys to save red squirrels was effective, and that perhaps finding a way of boosting red squirrel immunity to the poxvirus or planting areas of yew trees where reds are known to thrive and spending money on research into positive moves might be a better option.
In Ireland, the re-introduction of the Pine marten, a species made extinct originally by the very same land owners who also wish to do the same to the grey squirrel, has seen the rapid demise of the grey and the reintroction of the native reds. Red squirrels are smaller and more nimble than their grey counterparts, and as such can get to the very ends of tree branches where neither the pine martins, nor more importantly the heavier greys can, thus surviving and thriving. As a result in Ireland, the grey squirrel population has crashed in approximately 9,000 km2 of its former range and the reds has become common once more after a thirty year absence... oh and Pine Martens are protected again!
In Scotland, Pine Martens exist in areas where Red squirrels thrive, and greys do not. So perhaps there is a lesson here, as in England where there are no pine martens, the greys are prolific breeders. So there is an argument against the barbarity of shooting and poisoning greys, and if, as so many believe, the greys MUST be controlled, how about a more humane and natural method that nature intended.. with re-introduction of predators. Just a thought!
So a few facts and figures on the greys and to wrap up, from a purely personal perspective I love these little guys, as I do almost every creature in nature other than those eight legged beasties that shall not be named and for which I have a deep and powerful phobia that borders on paranoia!
I could no more harm an animal deliberately than eat a McDonald's McRib (Once saw how they are made and let me just say... eeeuuuuuwwwww!!).
They are small, cute, cuddly, furry, they photograph beautifully, have great personality and make me smile. They trust me enough to take food from my hand in parks, and I can't bare the though of ugly, hairy land owners sticking a shotgun in their face and blowing them away! I appreciate they can be a pest, a problem, a menace, that their PR managers might have a bit of a problem winning you over when they flay small chicks alive on your lawn or decimate the songbird population by stealing their eggs.... and perhaps there is a need to keep the population under control and try and re-establish the red population.....
Yep I get that....
I just hope we can solve the problem more humanely to create a peaceful coexistence of the reds and greys in different areas. A man can dream can't he.

The Postcard
A postally unused postcard published by Divalde bearing an early image of the Parliament Building in Budapest.
The publisher tells us on the back of the card that the building was constructed between 1885 and 1904, and that the cupola is 96 metres high.
They also note that there are 90 statues on the façade, along with 2,000 windows.
Budapest
Budapest is the capital and the most populous city of Hungary, and the tenth-largest city in the European Union by population within city limits. The city had an estimated population of 1,752,700 in 2016 distributed over a land area of about 525 square kilometres (203 square miles).
The Budapest metropolitan area has an area of 7,626 square kilometres (2,944 square miles) and a population of 3,303,786, comprising 33% of the population of Hungary.
Buda, the settlement on the west bank of the river, became one of the centres of Renaissance humanist culture by the 15th century. The Battle of Mohács, in 1526, was followed by nearly 150 years of Ottoman rule.
After the reconquest of Buda in 1686, the region entered a new age of prosperity. Pest-Buda became a city with the unification of Buda, Óbuda, and Pest on the 17th. November 1873, with the name 'Budapest' given to the new capital.
Budapest also became the co-capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a great power that dissolved in 1918, following the Great War. The city was the focal point of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, the Battle of Budapest in 1945, and the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.
Budapest is an Alpha − global city with strengths in commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. It is Hungary's financial centre and is the second fastest-developing urban economy in Europe.
Over 40 colleges and universities are located in Budapest, including the Eötvös Loránd University, the Semmelweis University and the Budapest University of Technology and Economics.
Opened in 1896, the city's underground system, the Budapest Metro, serves 1.27 million passengers daily, while the Budapest Tram Network serves 1.08 million.
Budapest is cited as one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. It is ranked as "The World's Second Best City" by Condé Nast Traveler, and "Europe's 7th. most idyllic place to live" by Forbes.
Among Budapest's important museums and cultural institutions is the Museum of Fine Arts. Further famous cultural institutions are the Hungarian National Museum, House of Terror, Franz Liszt Academy of Music, Hungarian State Opera House and National Széchényi Library.
The central area of the city along the Danube River is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has many notable monuments, including the Hungarian Parliament, Buda Castle, Fisherman's Bastion, Gresham Palace, Széchenyi Chain Bridge, Matthias Church and the Liberty Statue.
Other famous landmarks include Andrássy Avenue, St. Stephen's Basilica, Heroes' Square, the Great Market Hall, the Nyugati Railway Station built by the Eiffel Company of Paris in 1877.

La stella del pop fa tappa a San Siro per presentare "Take the Crown".
Dopo sei anni, Robbie Williams torna sulle scene con un grande tour che tocca i principali stadi europei. La stella del pop, che ha scalato le classifiche con con la hit Candy e con l'album Take the Crown, fa tappa a San Siro il 31 luglio.
Robert Peter Williams, noto come Robbie Williams, è un cantautore e musicista britannico.
Cominciò la carriera musicale nel 1990 come componente dei Take That, che divenne ben presto uno dei gruppi musicali più noti e seguiti del periodo. Lasciò i Take That nel 1995 per iniziare una brillante carriera da solista. Malgrado non goda di grande popolarità negli Stati Uniti, le vendite delle sue pubblicazioni toccano ben 75 milioni di copie, piazzando otto album e sei singoli nella vetta delle classifiche del Regno Unito e ricevendo numerosi premi e vittorie, tra cui 15 volte quelle dei BRIT Awards. Nel 2004 è stato inserito nella "UK Music Hall of Fame" ed eletto più importante artista britannico degli anni novanta. Dal 2010 è poi rientrato a far parte del suo storico gruppo.
Williams è entrato nel Guinness dei primati per aver venduto 1,6 milioni di biglietti in un solo giorno per il tour mondiale del 2006.
Williams è senz'altro uno dei cantanti più popolari nel mondo degli anni novanta e 2000.

Theme was celebration/freedom, because they changed the style of their magazine.
The Postcard
A postcard published by Sussex East Girl Guides. It was printed by Judges Postcards Ltd. of Hastings.
The card was posted on the Sussex Coast on Monday the 12th. August 1985 to:
Mr. J.H. Denyer,
176, Latimer Road,
Eastbourne,
Sussex.
The message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"Dear John,
Things are settling down
a bit after a hectic start.
We have been to the
harbour and cliffs and the
lifeboat and we plan to go
to the swimming pool today.
Janette is doing quite well.
The weather has been
rather blustery.
See you soon,
Love Mary".
The girls in the photograph will nearly all be mothers themselves by now - some of them could even be grandmothers. Tempus Fugit.
The Crash of Japan Airlines Flight 123
So what else happened on the day that Mary posted the card?
Well, on the 12th. August 1985 there was a major air crash.
Japan Airlines Flight 123 was a domestic passenger flight from Tokyo's Haneda Airport to Osaka International Airport, Japan. The Boeing 747SR suffered a sudden decompression twelve minutes into the flight and crashed in the area of Mount Takamagahara, 100 kilometres (62 miles) from Tokyo thirty-two minutes later.
Japan's Aircraft Accident Investigation Commission officially concluded that the rapid decompression was caused by a faulty repair by Boeing technicians after a tailstrike incident during a landing at Osaka Airport seven years earlier in 1978.
A plate on the rear bulkhead of the plane had been improperly repaired, compromising the plane's airworthiness. Cabin pressurization continued to expand and contract the improperly repaired bulkhead until the day of the accident, when the faulty repair finally failed, causing the rapid decompression that ripped off a large portion of the tail and caused the loss of hydraulic controls to the entire plane.
The aircraft, configured with increased economy class seating, was carrying 524 people. Casualties of the crash included all 15 crew members and 505 of the 509 passengers.
Some passengers survived the initial crash, but subsequently died of their injuries hours later, mostly due to the Japan Self-Defense Forces' decision to wait until the next day to go to the crash site, after declining an offer from a nearby United States Air Force base to start an immediate rescue operation.
It is the deadliest single-aircraft accident in aviation history.
