Shots from Taipei

[plastic]

Here are some photos that I have taken this week in Taipei while on a business trip. Hauled my rig everywhere I went, but it was worth it. The weather was bad, greyish overcast, but that did not stop me... heehee...

Camera haven, Taipei.
There are more than 200 shops cluttered in this street. Prices are very competitive. S$85 for a 1GB Ridata Pro 80x CF card. 7-14mm lens for $25xx. Camera haven.

Xi Men Ting street

Ouch!

Hats are still in fashion, Xi Men Ting

Colourful signages

Classic Vespa surviving and still running strong

Cop car... errr... I mean cop scooter

That is all to share for now. I hope the weather will be good over the weekend so that I can shoot more...

"Classic Vespa surviving and still running strong"

if you noticed, the motorbike acutally carries the Kao Hsiung plate. That is more than 4 hours ride (4 hours plus by bus) just to ride from the south end of taiwan up to the north end of taipei.

btw, nice series! and also take pictures of yummy food! :bsmilie:

Thanks guys. These are merely snapshots taken without much thinking. Just trying to think fast and frame the subject and snap.
