The guy who never runs out of arrows

mae govannen .... mellon nin'

I believe everybody must immediately understand whom I'm talking about. Yep, he is the prince of Mirkwood: our Legolas. True, in the Lord of The Ring books, he is not as cool as in the movie; he even should not appear in The Hobbit movie. But who cares? Peter Jackson, I do love your imagination!

How if emptiness is (still) an epidemic (even when you don't realize it)

In my country: Indonesia, people living in a community, that means you won't be (literally) alone. Especially when Indonesia's population is more than 240 million and make it as the top fourth of the world population. Well, just imagine, people are everywhere, at any direction. Sounds good and fun huh? Let's compare with this contradictory picture.

How if emptiness is an epidemic?

I love very much taking a picture of an empty bench, don'no why, but I just love it. Maybe be because emptiness represent a loneliness which is the most common feeling everybody doesn't want to admit. Why not admit it?

Hey, don't ask me, ask yourself! Actually the feeling doesn't sound sad, or related to sadness, it just a unique situation where you have to be alone and trust only yourself.

As explained on my previous post, bench should be associated with people. The absent of people give a strong message of emptiness and further, loneliness.

See the picture. I got this pic in front of National Gallery of Art downtown DC. I've been in this spot couple times but it's almost impossible to get a snap shoot of this place without the present of people, but finally I did get it. Cool huh??

The next pic is just few blocks from the first pic was taken. Yeah, it's always lots of people in this spot, but it's empty now, not even with cars on the street. And this is along Pennsylvania Avenue just after crossing the 10th Street NW downtown DC. Do you believe this?

When The God of Thunder turning into wise

I just watch “Thor”, a superhero movie based on Warvel comics. Thor is PG-13 movie (qualified for all ages including children under the age of 13 with parental guidance), but you won’t believe, I cried when watched that movie! Yes, it's ridiculous, watching a superhero movie but I cried.

Okay, what is so touched in that movie? Evidently, there’s a lesson of humility in the story of Thor, and the movie took a shot of that moment very nicely!!

A feeling of having "the world" in the hand

A piece of (mess) peacefulness

It should be a peacefulness place, like an oasis in the middle of a very busy city. In fact, the place might be dangerous and awful, if you come not in the right time (or come without a right person for accompany). Well, whatever you think, I love that place and always plan to come back (over and over again).

The picturesque Central Park

I don't live in New York, I live about three hours fifty minutes (driving) down south from Fifth Avenue New York, so can't come to the park at any time I want.

can you hear them?
the helicopters?
I'm in New York
no need for words now
we sit in silence
you look me in the eye directly
you met me
I think it's Wednesday
the evening, the mess we're in

the city sun sets over me
