These photos, taken by Tokyo-based photographer Akihiro Furuta, have apparently been circulating the blogosphere for a while. But seeing as I can never resist the opportunity to post quirky Japanese family portraits (remember Hideaki Hamada's beautiful boys, and Nagano Toyokazu's brilliant little firecracker?), I just had to share. I think they're amazing, with a capital A.
