你好!Greetings!
I hope some of my pictures would help you realize the immeasurable beauty of our times, as they always do me.
Khahil Gibran says best about time in The Prophet: " Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing. Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness, and knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream. And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space."
Pictures help me record the time I treasured and find out who I was born into in that "first moment", they also always drive me to live my life fullest and do what I like.
I currently use Nikon D80 + AF-S Nikkor 18-70mm + Tamron AF 70-300mm.
Thanks for your visit and my best regards,
Gao
Beijing, China

Learning Junkie - recovering from surgery says:
"Gao is one of my favorite photographer. He has the ability to capture powerful emotion and moods through his lens and tell a story with visual images. Viewing his photostream, gives me a chance to see other part of the world I've always wanted to visit. I appreciate his friendship and kind spirit. I am grateful to call him my friend."

"When I log on to Flickr, I go to see Gao's photos very frequently. His pictures are a window to his part of the world and the daily events of the area which are fascinating to me. One thing that Gao conveys well in his photos is a very human view of life. Gao sees things such as the smiles of the people on the streets, or the face of a small child. He captures these moments and posts his photos for all of us to see. I've admired Gao's photography for a long time now, and I'll be looking forward to seeing more of his great work in the future."

"star_trooper's artistic expression and his passion to nature and beauty are so inspiring and refreshing. Through his photos, I am re-discovering Bejing (my home town), Chinese cultures, and sometimes, new meanings of life. Thank you!"

"I found my way to star_trooper's photostream via his Tibet pictures, which include many awe-inspiring images of that country, displaying Gao's wonderful talent for composition.
More breathtaking images can be found in his Mauritius set, and his night shots of Bejiing are stunning.
He is also a skilled photographer of people, capturing many magical moments.
I feel I know Gao well, through his sensitive compositions and the insightful descriptions that accompany them. Thanks for showing me these glimpses of lands I have yet to visit, Gao. : )"10th July, 2008

"Gao was the first contact at Flickr's who really was to touch me deeply...some of his photos taken at Tibet "http://www.flickr.com/photos/star_trooper/597839073/","http://www.flickr.com/photos/star_trooper/529646943/", "http://www.flickr.com/photos/star_trooper/625951603/" are ranking among the best and most sensitive I've ever met at Flickr's..to me nearly each one of Gao's photographs spin a long yarn which I'd like to listen to only too willingly...it's just like sitting together savouring the moment and sharing emotions...and for that reason I'd like to say: Thank you, Gao!"

"star trooper has one of the best portfolios I have seen on flickr.
study work like his and you can make something we take for granted look absolutely beautiful and meaning full. His photography puts you with him. Few photographers can give you that sense of being and feeling. And humble to boot. His style spans from journalistic to artistic and everything in between. I can only hope that someday he sits down and writes about his gift that so many of us work for. I look forward to seen more and more. Keep up the good work friend."2nd July, 2008

"I am honored to be one of Gao's contacts on Flickr. His work is an inspiration as well as an education to me. Through his photos he shares the beauty and soul of his county. Gao is very supportive to me with my work and I feel that I learn from his comments."
