She was absolutely adorable and I really liked her natural look.

Unfortunately, there was a little mishap with my film roll and I could only save a close up of her purse. I wasn't as lucky with her full body shot so I've asked Qin to do an illustration of her look from memory ~

~ Vienna Trip ~

Film: Fujicolor 400

So this is the main reason I haven't been posting much the past week~
I have been busy attending a Conference on Tissue Engineering (yes, this is my other and real job) in no other place than the beautiful Vienna!!! How lucky is that! In between attending talks and giving presentations, I managed to capture a few shots and hopefully can give you a sense of how magical this city really is~

Hofburg Centre ~ Historical Library~

This is where the Conference took place! Absolutely breath taking!

Inside one of the Presentation Room, large enough to seat 500 people! (and that wasn't even the largest room they had)

~Historical Library where the Conference Banquet was held~

The details and the scale of those murals is just out of this world!

Inside and View from the tallest tower of St Stephen's Cathedral.

Climbed a total of 364 steps to get to the top! Although exhausting, it was well worth it as you can see~
