I'm a freelance photographer and a camera-man. One dimension and passion to my photography is my work and exploration of solar and lunar eclipses. For this I travel all around the world to photograph these breathtaking astronomical phenomena. While not only this, I'm also intereseted in meteorology especially in thunderstorms. I simply love lightning effects to the night sky. The life of a single lightning is only 1/1000 seconds, but I made them everlasting in my pictures. I not only enjoy the extreme situations like storm chasing but I'm a climber also. Recently, I have started practicing le parcour and have also made a short movie about it. Last but not the least, I also practice Tai Chi Chuan - Southern Wu Chien Chuan Style.

With all of these, among my achievements are winning the 1st prize in University Photography Competition with my picture in science category and also has portraited the University Finest Calender 2009. I'm involved in several media institutions like Campus TV at my university and media studios. Moreover, in this year of 2009, I have made four short films with several under production. I have a good knowledge in videotaping with different camera systems and editing with computer programms.

PHILOSOPHY

______________________________________________________________

"Because we don`t know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well.
Yet everything happens a certain number of times. And a very small number, really.
How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that`s so deeply a part of your being that you can`t even conceive of your life without it?
Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that.
How many more times will you watch the full moon rise?
Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless."

- Memory on Brandon Bruce Lee grave (李國豪)
