Ok so perhaps books, well they inspire my travel, my love to explore and to experiment. But right now I&#8217;ve been catching up on movies, not the usual comedy &#8220;rubbish&#8221; I watch to chill out but inspiring stuff, movies with great cinematography.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You might remember way back when, I shared with you <a href=\"http:\/\/damianbrownphotography.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/notte%20sento\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: none;\">&#8220;<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Notte Sento<\/span>&#8220;<\/span><\/span><\/a> which was a great timelapse shot video.
