[The night sky really looks like that just that we can't see it with our eyes.]
I need to remind myself to look beyond what I cannot see, what I cannot do, what I cannot get.

The Northern Lights
In Reykjavik on March 8, 2009 at 1:47 am
[Braved the cold waiting in darkness just for this. I didn't do anything to the colours for this photo; just so you know, it was really like that. Most people stayed on the bus to wait because it was too windy. I had my tripod all propped up and I kept jumping on the spot to keep warm.]
Slowly but surely, I’ll get all my photos properly archived and in order so you get to see more of them. I promise.
分久必合，合久必分
In Reykjavik on March 4, 2009 at 2:24 am
[The ice had cracked along one of the trails which we were walking on in the middle of nowhere in Iceland. It was truly in the middle of nowhere because there was only us and the 3 other people from the jeep; then the 360 degrees of flat ground all around us had no one else.]
Just finished watching the Chinese movie Red Cliff 2 on Chinese war strategy. It confirms one of the things I aim to work on so it was quite a good thing to watch that movie.
Bankrupt Iceland With Priceless Scenery
In Reykjavik on February 27, 2009 at 8:03 pm
[The views we sponged in at Pingvellir National Park. This was one of the stops for the one-day jeep tour we took. We walked through beauty as such, and alongside a volcanic rift valley as well. And yes the waters in Iceland are the bluest I've ever seen in my life. They're blue even when the sun doesn't shine. That's how mineral-rich it is.]
Got three upcoming trips planned, and a lot more exciting things to look forward to this Easter break. Now back to the reading.
Chilling Icelandic Moon
In Reykjavik on February 22, 2009 at 5:24 am
[On the first night of reaching Reykjavik, capital of Iceland, we took a bus from the airport to our hotel.]
Yes I am back from Iceland, and yes it was beautiful. And even more so, in response to all your excited questions, yes I do have many beautiful pictures. But for now, I have to first sort my time out yet once again.
I’ve got a self-positioning proposition and plan due in 1 week. It’s a 2,000 word essay on where I hope to see myself go forth with the knowledge I have acquired during the course of my MA Innovation Management. Then I just embarked on another short course at Central Saint Martins today. This time it’s silk-screen printing for beginners and I thoroughly enjoyed myself today. Doing something so manual is a nice break away from the highly digitised world I live in. Also, I’m finally more than halfway done with the photography website I’m building proper. You will get a chance to see a lot more of my travel photos there.
Oh and of course, there’s Easter holiday planning and more merry eating and drinking.
