V is for Vascular Surgery

I interrupt my Taiwan series of posts to upload these set of photos from my Surgery SIP (Student Internship Programme). Many thanks to my seniors who made this experience an enjoyable one =) Without further ado, allow me to present the V Team!


The VHOs and the VSIPs!


Trying the serious look (and failing)

V for Vascular!


The rest of the SIPs =)

Taiwan XX: Sunrise at Alishan (阿里山)

Finally, battling the sleep monster, we reached a vantage point to view the sunrise (which was predicted to occur at around 5.20am)


Moments before the sun rose..


The glorious sunrise which we had woke up at 3am for..

Taiwan XIX: Stars at Alishan (阿里山)

Back after another long hiatus. Been very busy in the hospital.. Here are some of my best shots of the stars on Alishan, taken at 4am. Enlarge them in Flickr to see the stars in their full glory =)


The light at top of the mountain ranges is apparently a military sentry.


More stars!


Anyone can identify the stars? =)
