My trip to Spain. Part 1 and 2 on my blog at: writenow.wordpress.com/2011/03/24/trip-to-spain-part-2-pe...
Day 53 of 2015. I hosted a fishbowl conversation on the "bamboo ceiling" (the disproportionately smaller percentage of Asian-American leaders in corporate America), featuring my friend, Michael Lin, who is passionate and thoughtful about these issues.
About a dozen friends and colleagues representing many different sectors sacrificed their Sunday afternoon to explore questions around leadership and equity. It was a great conversation, but it was even more fun watching my friends from all different walks of life engaging with each other and finding simple ways to support each other.

using the "Kodak Gold" in-camera film recipe for Sony from veresdenialex. I like this film recipe a lot. I\'ve found it to be a lot more cinematic than real Kodak Gold 200, probably due to Sony digital cameras having a much bigger dynamic range than consumer grade film :-) ... but the recipe does a pretty good job of mimicking the Kodak Gold color profile if you keep in mind it\'s going to look much deeper and richer than the real thing.
The depth of the plasterwork is quite amazing and the vivid red accentuates the scrolls in the plaster.

Would you lie on your back in order to get a shot? That is the question that I asked myself when looking at the ceiling of the Library of Congress. My friend Tom lied on his back for a similar shot but I chose to lay my camera on the floor, turn on the self-timer and quickly step away to get my shot. To onlookers, both of these situations had to be a little strange. Now, would I lie on back in the middle of the Library of Congress to get a shot? I definitely would do it if it is what it took.

Visitors who knew the room in the past will find it transformed when they visit again. A replica of the original stained-glass ceiling and banks of ornately trimmed ceiling coffers, new and restored furnishings, a fresh coat of paint, and re-creations of the original bronze wall sconces give the room a warm and elegant tone.
It turns out we haven't left Rundāle Palace in Latvia, after all.
I came across a trove of photos I took in the palace basement on the way out of the complex.
It's essentially Rundāle Palace's historical society, full of cases of artifacts, photos of the palace when the interior decoration was in a state of great disarray, and many paragraphs of text that explain numerous aspects of the interior.
