But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty.” – Jon Krakauer – “You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again.

I chose the right location where I can get the fishing boats in view and also this area is quite bright for me to use the natural light without using flash, in fact I…
