cute designs to draw

This picture amazingly captures the think layer of clouds within the valley near the south of Lake Como, northern Italy. In the above image, the dense cloud hides almost the valley and instead gives off some artificial lights which make the city like an opaque blanket. The village over distance is clearly seen from the blanket. The story shocked me more than usual because I know my friend is a fairly good martial artist. He is often dubbed as 'talented' by his colleagues and superiors. What's wrong with this story? In theory, he may have wasted the thief quickly while he clearly had no weapon with him. According to him, he didn't know what to do. He knew how he could subdue such assault but he just did not know how to handle it at that time.
