Talgoland: It's all that you can't leave behind

This one I only got to see the first episode of, but so far it looks promising. The subject is a combat photographer who shots Nikon (!!!) and who is obsessed with taking the perfect photograph that only he can take. To do this he has travelled to the ends of the earth, to a small desert kingdom somewhere in Asia, to take a photo of a lone Japanese mercenary fighter pilot. It's almost like a cross between Year of Living Dangerously and Top Gun. Should prove to be interesting to see how this one develops.

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, / And sorry I could not travel both / And be one traveler, long I stood / And looked down one as far as I could / To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair, / And having perhaps the better claim, / Because it was grassy and wanted wear; / Though as for that the passing there / Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay / In leaves no step had trodden black. / Oh, I kept the first for another day! / Yet knowing how way leads on to way, / I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh / Somewhere ages and ages hence: / Two roads diverged in a wood, and Iâ€” / I took the one less traveled by, / And that has made all the difference.
