A good friend of mine turned me onto your work and I have to say it is truly inspirational. Feel in love with Alone in Tokyo and have watched it repeatedly as well as many of your other works. Thanks again for the inspiration! Cheers, DPM

I’m Chinthaka. From Sri Lanka. In last few weeks I came to your web site several times. so I’m very much impressed. and I love this one very much. but I think the topic is not suitable with video. I think the best topic is “Life”
What you think about that?
Thank you!

February 15, 2010 at 12:13Just watched ‘Lost Times’ must have missed this film, as I’ve been to the site many times. What strikes me is your eye for the ‘the magical’ the beauty that is all around us, but yet that that many don’t see – you also have an incredible ear for music, and your music choice is always ‘spot on’ and this is half of your skill – stuff from the heart – you are obviously a hopeless romantic on the quiet. Thanks for posting, and for the many hours you put into helping others for little recompense – cheers.

How do you get all this great music? Do you pay for it? Isn’t it like crazy expensive? – thanks for what you do.
