A bit about myself. Apart from taking photos, I also write a little bit, and am a freelance translator.
I especially enjoy translating, it’s a way of my reading. I translated many western dramas and other programs for TV station. Among them are: As Good as It Gets (highly recommend), Nobody’s Fool (highly recommend), Babe, Die Hard 2 (When McClane was still a common person, now he is a Terminator.), Everybody Loves Raymond, North Shore…
For me, photography is a way to see and a way to express things I am not able to express in words.
Thanks for your time. Best wishes!

Cool rain wets the sky and ground, calling. It silenced the boiling world. Time becomes slow. My mind wants to enjoy the rain’s intriguing display and peace.
