- I have once visit this historical railway station and shoot this scene with iphone, after several month I think that I should do it in high resolution and shoot it properly way. The parallel construction is what I concern.

- After coming back from several weeks out in nature back into a city like New York, I was at first overwhelmed by its rough metropolitan character. On a bike ride through Upper and Lower Manhattan I met a local at a traffic light. He spotted me taking pictures of unusual spots. He later took me for a ride around the greater city area and gave me insights into his perspective of how he sees his home town. This photo was taken on that evening from the top of the Empire State Building. He inspired me and enabled me to see the city from a whole new perspective.

- Have you ever wondered how does a mountaineer's day start? I will give you a hint: you wake up at 3 am, set the stove, wake up your partner, pretend it is warm, quickly consume a high-calorie breakfast, watch your friends slowly ascending the icy slopes of your dream summit with their tiny head torches glimmering against perfectly blue ice, and hope for the good weather. One would ask: why all this trouble? The answer is easy: for the love of the adventure and the unknown.
