(I'm not sure what the right counter word for digital photos would be, but physical photographs would be flat things, so we'll go with "mai"...)
The post title pretty much says it: I have taken 1,000 pictures thus far on this trip. We're now in Yokohama, staying in an absurd room on the 62nd floor of the Landmark Tower, and we spent most of the day poking around in Tokyo. But the important thing is those thousand pictures, and here's a cheap reader contest:
How many picture will I have taken by the end of this trip?
Leave your guesses in the comments. The person who comes closest to the actual number without going over will win something cheap and tacky from Japan that I will buy before I leave.

Some time back, I proposed a contest:
The person who comes closest to the actual number [of pictures taken in Japan] without going over will win something cheap and tacky from Japan that I will buy before I leave.
I haven't fogotten about this, I've just been too busy to do all that much with the…
Several days ago, I mentioned that I had taken over 1,000 pictures on the trip thus far. That number has increased somewhat since then, and I offered a prize to the person who comes closest to guessing the final number, without going over. Specifically, I promised something cheap and tacky from…
The 2007 World Science Fiction Convention will be held in Yokohama, Japan this year, and Kate and I are going. It's a bit of a delayed celebration for my tenure-- I'll be on sabbatical in the Fall, so I won't need to worry about prepping a class for September, and we can make it a nice vacation.
We…
Next year's World Science Fiction Convention is being held in Yokohama, Japan, the first time a Worldcon has ever been held in Japan. With this year's Worldcon out of the way, we're starting to see some discussion of who's going, and whether various US-based fans will make the trip or not.
If I…
Ah heck, San sen go hyaku mai. Err... 3500 in English. My Japanese is rusty.
1804.
Based on the inverse exponential value of yet another old temple, neon-lit street or hole-in-the-wall ramen joint. You'll be be converging towards a lower steady-state rate of photographing.

1499.
I suspect your rate will go down considerably when you start the con, since you'll be more of a participant and less of a tourist.
I was going to guess 1500, but decided to go with the closest prime instead... and that's a cute one anyway.
I think I average about 150 photos/day when traveling, but then again I consider myself to be slightly crazy for photos. So congrats, I think...
Sen nana hakyu ... 1700.

2134.
3,716. 'Cause there will plenty to photograph once the con starts.
