Top of the Pops
Both as a personal exercise in creativity and as a theme for a competition, putting together a series of photographs that are based on the song titles on a favorite album is a lot of fun. There are a number of ways you can go about it, so let’s look at a few. They all [...]
Five For Friday – Broken
Welcome back to 5. A few photos this week, all linked to the idea “broken”. Enjoy. Check back tomorrow for the free March desktop calendar download.
The Winners – Guess The Theme
After one month of images and lots of good attempts from you to guess the theme, it’s time to announce the winners and tell you what the theme actually was. I’ve actually decided to award two prizes to two winners. They will each win the photo of their choice in a size that’ll look good [...]
Flamingo
So this is it. The final image in the month long theme competition. All you have to do to correctly win a limited edition photo is guess the theme that’s been running. The first correct guess (or guesses) will be the winning one. I will be announcing the results in a couple of days – [...]
Rarely Seen in Taiwan
Today is a Sunday special – the penultimate photo in the theme competition. Don’t forget to make your guess for a chance to win a limited edition photo. The results will be posted in a few days. Fortunately, these vehicles are rarely seen in Taiwan. Driving anywhere is chaotic and in the city, completely unnecessary.
Ximending Nights
Coming to the end of the theme competition. Just a couple of days to go. Bustling Ximending, Taipei at night.
Renewable Energy in Taiwan
Counting down the last few days of the theme competition. Only 4 photos to go. Here’s one of them.

As of 2007, wind [...]
The Big Bang, Taiwan style
Coming to the end of week three in the theme competition. Some good guesses so far, keep them coming in. Two Taiwanese men run away from exploding fireworks during the 2008 Mazu Festival in Changhua, Taiwan. Among the many gods and goddesses worshipped in Taiwan, Mazu (媽祖), the Goddess of the Sea is perhaps the [...]
Taipei Climate Change 1206 Action
Here we are with Thursday’s image for the theme competition. As part of the 1206 Global Climate Campaign’s International Day of Action, Taipei hosted a march and concert, beginning at Chiang Kai shek Memorial Hall and ending up at Da-an Forest Park after a march through the streets of Taipei. The above shot is a [...]
Last Waves
This is the second photo in the guess the theme competition Taiwan is a hidden jewel for surfers.
Landing @ Songshan
This is the first photo in the guess the theme competition. Songshan Airport, located in central Taipei, is a mid-sized commercial airport that serves mainly domestic flights, cross-strait charter flights to China and is home to the Songshan Base Command, the division of the ROC Air Force that directly serves the president and vice-president.
Did I Mention A Prize?
Just a few days to go now until you get a chance to win something. So this is a good time to explain what’s happening. Starting Monday November 24th, I’ll be posting 5-6 photos per week – 1 a day with Sunday and sometimes Saturday off. Each photo will be a part of a theme, [...]
