X bridge

Seen from my hotel room, this cable-stayed bridge is the only one in the world that supports two curved tracks on a single mast.

Dusk at Bass Harbor

This one is from the archives, taken a couple of years ago during a visit to Acadia National Park with a photographer friend. Amidst continuous rain and clouds, we resorted to shooting anything that looked even mildly promising. In the end, I was decently satisfied with this one.

Perfect ending to a rather heavy work week in CA. Yesterday's sunset at Half Moon Bay was simply spectacular, don't get too many of these on the east coast :)

Bath Abbey

Bath Abbey, particularly known for its fan vaulted ceiling, an ingenious way to distribute the roof's load down to the supporting columns, and, at the same time providing interesting architectural relief compared to the tubed columns seen in most 16th century Gothic cathedrals.

The Theological Hall at Strahov

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 11:06 -0400

My initial interest for Strahov was spurred by the monastery's brewery, but admittedly the monastery itself is an amazing place to visit. First built sometime in the late 17th century, Strahov was attacked and partially destroyed during wars with the French and Bavarians in the mid 1700s. Following these wars, the monastery was rebuilt and the abbots collected celebrated theological works, which are displayed in this library today. There is a philosophy library as well just next to this, which I'll try to post as well.

Bath

The Great Bath in the city of Bath UK, originally built by the Romans around 60 AD but modified several times. It transports you back in time, the underground channel system used to move water is well preserved.

Nerudova

A walk down from Strahovsky monastery to the Prague castle takes you on Nerudova, a quiet and charming street with views like this.

The castle plays hide and seek with you as you cut through farms and meadows to be greeted by its imposing surroundings.

The colorful facades of Old Town stand as vivid and colorful as ever, even on a wet day.
