Scott, you forgot to mention that:

A) Some places in Japan are *supposed* to have yellow water :-)

B) There's no such thing as Lake Hakone (or if there is, it must be pretty
small and obscure, 'cuz I've never heard of it)  :-)

In light of B, I don't think a photo of it for the desktop would be a problem
even on an 8-bit display :-)
