Karen Armstrong: A History of God: The 4,000-Year Quest of Judaism, Christianity and Islam (*****)
Hermann Hesse: Siddhartha (*****)
I've studied metallurgical engineering, and I specialised in corrosion. I've done my MBA, and worked in the steel, consumer and healthcare industry.
Over the years, I have developed an interest in photography, in travel and cultures.
I've travelled a lot in India and China. They are both fascinating countries.
I have, recently, developed a strong interest in history. While being agnostic, I do have a deep interest in religion as I believe that it is one of the great forces that moves us.
And finally, I have discovered a love for yoga. The truths of ancient India is dawning upon me.
Where the future leads, I don't know.
And if I had 50 more years to love, I would travel the world, photographing it and writing about it, and trying to develop a deeper understanding of the world, it's peoples, the landscapes and our fellow beings in the animal kingdom.
The cameras I've used. In the early days, I used an Olympus OM-2n with a 50 mm and a 70-300 mm zoom.
Today, I have a Nikon F75, a Nikon Coolpix S10, A Nikon D70 and a Nikon D 200.
The lenses I have are a 28-100 zoom and a 70 - 300 zoom for the F 75. for the digital cameras, a 28-70 (D70), 28-200 (D 200), a 12-24, and a 70 - 300.
Photography, reading, travel, music (rock, blues, world), sport, weblogs, religion and mythology, cultures. Getting into yoga, step by step. Some favourites: The History of Middle Earth Series.
