Everything they say is true

shivs — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 22:52:36 +0000

Everything they say about Bled is true, and more.

It really is a fairytale town with a deep blue sparkling lake, castles on every corner of the lake, and jagged mountains protecting it.

It’s very surreal too. Bled doesn’t just feel like a fairytale land. It feels like an escape.

These days, I work in a newsroom with 4 TV screens simultaneously showing different news channels – CNN, BBC, SkyNews, etc. So my days are filled with a continuous loop of images of all the ills of the world – a bad economy, violence in Syria and Libya, riots in London, earthquakes and hurricanes in the US, and everything else.

It’s nice to know there is a place in the world away from all these struggles. A place where the biggest problem is a windy day and a poorly-timed rain shower. And while I only get to stay here for a week, I surely will enjoy every moment of it.

De Nederlandse Roei-Equipe 2009 Photo Gallery

Here are some of the quick snapshots I was able to take of the Dutch team from the 2009 World Rowing Championships.

“As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” – Coach Carter.

Thank you to all the members of the Dutch team that have supported my work through the years.
