Ecstatic Music by Catherine Tran

Sleepless. Wake up from the bed to find some comforting music. Go around to find. Bump into Mr Synyster Shark's website: http://synystershark.wordpress.com and I found her.
Mr Shark mentioned Catherine Tran a few years back when I came to London for the concert. I barely paid any attention to her music at that time. This time I keep looping through her music on Myspace. Love "What you do" but can't find it on youtube. Love this track too so I post it instead.

Tilt-shift photography

According to wikipedia, tilt-shift photography refers to the use of tilt and a large aperture to achieve a very shallow depth of field.
It sounds complicated. Simply what I like about this technique is it can make your photo look like a miniature model.
I found a website which can transform your normal photo to a "tilt-shifted" photo:

This is my original photo taken during my "Norway in a nutshell" tour - a village on Sognefjord:



And this is the photo after being applied tilt-shift technique:


It's nice isn't it? ;)
