Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional downscaling and WebP encoding, sRGB output ICC embedded. No retouching, AI editing, crop or enlargement. UI thumbnails may crop edges. Current delivery: WebP quality 80. The smallest approved WebP candidate is used; existing image URLs are retained. Each rendition retains its previous dimensions and composition; no additional crop, enlargement, colour adjustment, retouching or AI editing. Source material and prior delivery bytes are retained outside the public deployment.

The source capture date and +09:00 offset match the supplied JPEG’s EXIF. Source ICC is absent; EXIF ColorSpace1 supports the sRGB interpretation. This is a dated exterior and spring-lighting photograph, not a Buddhist-sculpture image, sutra-copying image or promise of a future opening. All output WebPs embed sRGB ICC. Checksums identify the downloaded provider JPEG and local derivatives, not authenticated camera-original bytes or a provider-published checksum.

Funakawa cherry blossoms, photographed 2024-04-13. This frame does not show tulips or rapeseed; seasonal bloom and field conditions vary.

Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional downscaling and WebP encoding, sRGB output ICC embedded. No retouching, AI editing, crop or enlargement.

The source capture field matches the supplied JPEG date and time. The source page omits a timezone; the JPEG’s +09:00 offset supplies it. The embedded source sRGB profile was converted to output sRGB. Cherry trees, mountains and reflections are visible; this photograph does not show the tulips or rapeseed of the wider spring festival. All output WebPs embed sRGB ICC. Checksums identify the downloaded provider JPEG and local derivatives, not authenticated camera-original bytes or a provider-published checksum.

Hotei Great Buddha — Nakai_Chan / FIND47 / CC BY 4.0. Proportionally resized and WebP-encoded by Daywise Japan Travel.

A spring scene photographed on 7 April 2024. The crossing signals visually align with the statue; this photograph does not guarantee the same viewpoint or cherry blossom conditions on a future visit.

Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional reduction; WebP quality 84/method 6; sRGB ICC embedded based on source EXIF ColorSpace 1. No crop, retouching, AI or enlargement. Current delivery: WebP quality 80. The smallest approved WebP candidate is used; existing image URLs are retained. Each rendition retains its previous dimensions and composition; no additional crop, enlargement, colour adjustment, retouching or AI editing. Source material and prior delivery bytes are retained outside the public deployment.

The FIND47 capture field agrees with the supplied JPEG’s EXIF date and +09:00 offset. Source ICC is absent; EXIF ColorSpace 1 supports sRGB. The permanent outdoor sculpture dates to 1954; this is a travel introduction, not reproduction merchandise. No public-domain status, property release, new-shoot permission or unrestricted cemetery access is claimed. Output WebPs embed sRGB ICC and retain the full frame. SHA-256 records identify the downloaded provider file and exact derivatives, not an authenticated camera-original or provider-published checksum.

Big Katsura tree in Uwano. — rikky_photography / FIND47 / CC BY 4.0. Proportionally resized and WebP-encoded by Daywise Japan Travel.

Photographed on 22 June 2024, according to FIND47. The author’s supplied colours are retained without retouching; this is not a guarantee of identical light, foliage or trail conditions on a visit.

Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional reduction; WebP quality 84/method 6; sRGB output ICC embedded as conventional web-display assumption because source has no colour profile or EXIF ColorSpace. No colour correction, crop, retouching, AI or enlargement. Current delivery: WebP quality 80. The smallest approved WebP candidate is used; existing image URLs are retained. Each rendition retains its previous dimensions and composition; no additional crop, enlargement, colour adjustment, retouching or AI editing. Source material and prior delivery bytes are retained outside the public deployment.

The capture date is explicitly supplied by FIND47, not independently corroborated by the EXIF-free JPEG or inferred from publication. Source ICC and colour-space evidence are absent: sRGB is a web-display assumption. The contributor’s magenta-tinted colours are retained, not corrected or represented as verified natural colours. A photo licence does not establish permission to stand on the pictured roots or a trail’s opening. Output WebPs embed sRGB ICC and retain the full frame. SHA-256 records identify the downloaded provider file and exact derivatives, not an authenticated camera-original or provider-published checksum.

A coastal photograph from 10 March 2024, as dated by FIND47. The dramatic surf is a past scene, not a recommendation to visit in rough weather or approach the rocks.

Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional reduction, preserving vertical composition; WebP quality 84/method 6; sRGB ICC embedded as a conventional display assumption because source colour information is absent. No crop, retouching, AI or enlargement. Current delivery: WebP quality 80. The smallest approved WebP candidate is used; existing image URLs are retained. Each rendition retains its previous dimensions and composition; no additional crop, enlargement, colour adjustment, retouching or AI editing. Source material and prior delivery bytes are retained outside the public deployment.

FIND47 explicitly supplies the capture date; the provided JPEG has no EXIF date for independent corroboration. Source ICC and colour-space evidence are absent, so sRGB is a web-display assumption. The vertical composition remains whole. This travel introduction points to the land-side lookout, not the original camera footing, surf or rocks. Output WebPs embed sRGB ICC and retain the full frame. SHA-256 records identify the downloaded provider file and exact derivatives, not an authenticated camera-original or provider-published checksum.

Takamatsu — SHori / FIND47 / CC BY 4.0. Proportionally resized and WebP-encoded by Daywise Japan Travel.

A coastal scene photographed in Kahoku, Ishikawa, on 16 March 2024. Sky colours and reflections vary; this is not a promise of current weather or an invitation to enter the surf.

Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional reduction and WebP quality 84/method 6. Source sRGB IEC61966-2.1 ICC retained. Original JPEG metadata preserved in original file; WebP does not copy EXIF. No crop, retouching, AI or enlargement. Current delivery: WebP quality 80. The smallest approved WebP candidate is used; existing image URLs are retained. Each rendition retains its previous dimensions and composition; no additional crop, enlargement, colour adjustment, retouching or AI editing. Source material and prior delivery bytes are retained outside the public deployment.

FIND47’s capture field matches the supplied JPEG’s EXIF date and +09:00 offset; its later modification date is not treated as capture. The embedded sRGB IEC61966-2.1 profile is retained without colour adjustment. This is Kahoku in Ishikawa, not Takamatsu City in Kagawa. The source map identifies the coastal area, not a surveyed visitor-access pin. Output WebPs embed sRGB ICC and retain the full frame. SHA-256 records identify the downloaded provider file and exact derivatives, not an authenticated camera-original or provider-published checksum.

Processing: Processing record before this delivery update: Full-frame proportional resize, WebP quality84/method6. No crop, retouching, AI or enlargement. Source has no ICC/EXIF; sRGB display is an assumption, no verified colour conversion. Current delivery: WebP quality 80. The smallest approved WebP candidate is used; existing image URLs are retained. Each rendition retains its previous dimensions and composition; no additional crop, enlargement, colour adjustment, retouching or AI editing. Source material and prior delivery bytes are retained outside the public deployment.

FIND47 explicitly supplies 2 August 2024 as the photograph date. The provider JPEG has no EXIF date or embedded ICC profile; the WebPs likewise contain no ICC. sRGB display is an assumption, not a verified source profile or colour conversion. The full portrait is retained. This records a past festival, not a 2027 schedule or visitor permission to enter the launch area. The 2024 schedule was only search-index corroborated, not verified in a retrieved full primary page; the current official tourism page marks 2026 finished. SHA-256 records identify the downloaded provider JPEG and exact derivatives, not an authenticated camera-original or provider-published checksum.
