The Great Wall (Happy Birthday to Me)

By erik | Published October 11, 2011

 

It took a four hour drive from Beijing, but I managed to photograph the Great Wall at Jinshanling in China without any (Chinese) tourists in view. The view was breathtaking (as were all those steps). Climbing and photographing all these towers was the best way to spend my birthday (which was exactly what I did there ;-)

UFO Crash Site (3)

By erik | Published July 5, 2011

A barren soaring hot place in the middle of ‘nowhere’ in New Mexico, USA… A view over the lands where in 1947 a flying saucer crashed. Somewhere in this view, 64 years ago an alleged alien craft and alien bodies were retrieved by the US Army. A pinned down *exact* location is kept secret by both the government and the UFO investigators (who still consider the area an active archeology site), but this is as close as it gets. Just open the image, look at it and take a moment to think about it. Out of this world ;-)
