Starting point – in front of Rijks Museum. Rembrant’s ‘Night Watch’ has been restored recently. It is a beautiful master piece indeed but looks too fresh to be hundreds years old painting. Restoration may be too good or too perfect… :- ) Dutch maritime exhibition, even the model itself is very impressive […]

I didn’t plan to pretend a local person in this travel, but I stayed at Shinagawa district, Tokyo anyway for business trip, it was good time to go out in office worker’s outfit instead of tourist to travel around Tokyo. I made my Sony camera in low profile (grip removed & attach a pancake lens) and casually hang on the shoulder. All-time busy place, Shinagawa Station Shinagawa […]

From first point, 250m from entrance of the trail Taipei 101 is the most extraordinary landmark in Taipei. It attracts endless tourist and countless photo-shoots surely. Even so, it does not hinder temptation to take one for ourselves, right? And very much worthy to do so I bet… Elephant mountain There are 4 […]
#1 Pingxi (1 day trip) Yes, TOP-1 is Pingxi. I’ve been there several times and always impressed. High light is ‘Lantern’, of course, and there are several places to stroll, e.g. Shifen water fall, old streets, railway through town. Best timing for Lantern starts 1-2 hours before sunset to dark. It is not only photogenic but exciting moment to launch fire lanterns to sky when […]
Taipei Lantern Festival has started last night. Place is the flower expo, where many artworks are displayed and open to publc. Take off Yuanshan MRT and go out exit #1, then lanterns greet us… Worth to be there and spend time & enjoy delicious dinner too at the Maji Maji. I display some […]
Hi, Taiwan Opeanuts I recently have specific feedback from Korean Opeanut members. Our community gallery has a lot of posting, mountain, flower, sky…. but not that many people and city of Taiwan. Well, that’s good point, right? I like to stroll downtown of Taipei city and take some casual and/or serious(?) street photo to introduce Taiwan […]
