**The Way We Are 2003**

The Way We Are 2003 photo collection was compiled mainly from the
prizewinning works of the seventh annual "Lives of Japanese High School
Students: Photo and Message Contest." Held every year since 1997, this
contest seeks to convey what today's Japanese high school students are
thinking and what kind of lives they lead to their peers overseas, through
entries that consist of five photographs taken by the students themselves
along with short captions and messages.

Please note that yomigana for the Japanese text and the insert providing an
English translation of the text are no longer included. The Japanese edition
will be sent to those who apply to receive the volume. Those who have
received the photo collection as a donation in past years should apply again
to receive the collection.

For more information about the contest entries and texts, please see the new
English website, entitled "The Way We Are: Photo Essays of High School
Students in Japan" which features excerpts from the contents of The Way We
Are photo collection.

The completely new content of the English The Way We Are site, with photos
and essays selected from among the nearly 2000 submitted to the seven
contests held to date, is designed to introduce the rich personalities and
diverse faces of Japanese high school students in a more accessible and
understandable manner. Where necessary, footnotes and links to explanatory
photos and in-depth explanations are appended to the English translation.

For some photos, Web site visitors are able to listen to an audio recording.
Two easy-to-understand rewrite versions of the Japanese captions and
essays (one with and the other without yomigana readings) are provided for
language learners.
