I kind of felt in love with this effect for some reason.
Can't imagine how they made these sculptures.
Rest for she's watching over you.

Taiwan - Nostalgia edition
I worked in Taiwan for 8 months as a fresh faced college grad. I had no idea how the world works but life was full of possibilities, every thing was a new experience and coming back to Taiwan was like returning home. Work was long and hard but everyday was a chance for me to exercise my creative muscles and soak in everything game development had to offer. I was finally there at a game company making games. It was truly an exciting time! Even living on only 1000 USD a month and in a dump of an apartment, everything was good. I was on my way, to what I don't know, but I was getting there. Life however, didn't share in my excitement. In fact by what happened I say it took one look, rolled its eyes and with a devious smirk and a snap of the fingers I was on a plane heading back to the USA.
What does that have to do with the pictures? Well nothing really, but my dilapidated basement apartment was located close to a big lake that's a very popular tourist area. I had the chance to revisit the area and it was pretty much like I remembered.
There is one big lake with a bridge over and lots of food vendors and peddle boats. They revamped the area to make it more modern and with more shops, but it was essentially what it was 9 years ago.
One of the shop had these really colorful leather bracelets. I'm a bit old for leather jewelries but the way they were arranged and displayed was a photographer's dream.
In some ways the second time I left Taiwan I really left it. It's no longer my home but I'm no longer that fresh faced college grad. Almost a decade later I see that by leaving Taiwan my horizon was expanded and my person became more well rounded. Perhaps it wasn't a devious smirk that was on life's face, maybe it was the smile a mother bird gives to her baby chick before pushing it out of the nest so it can spread its wings.
Until next time, Formosa.
