Taipei City, Taiwan: Beautiful classical Chinese styled roof at the National Performing Arts Center of Chiang Kai Shek Memorial.
Again the rain will fall
on the sweet pavements,
a light rain
like a breath or a footstep.
Again the breeze and the dawn
will blossom lightly
beneath your footstep
as you reenter.
Among flowers and sills
the cats will know it.
There will be other days.
There will be other voices.
You will smile alone.
The cats will know it.
You will hear antique words,
tired and empty words
like the disused costumes
from yesterday's festivals.
You too will make gestures.
You will respond with words—
face of Spring,
you too will make gestures.
The cats will know it,
face of Spring;
and the light rain,
the hyacinth-color dawn,
that tears the heart of one
who no longer longs for you,
they are the sad smile
you smile alone.
There will be other days,
other voices and awakenings.
We will suffer at dawn,
face of Spring.

Guardian angel – motif: "Abyss".
With arms outstretched protectively, an angel draped in green and pink lush fabric watches over two children. Absorbed in their game with ball and hoop, the little boy and his sister do not seem to notice that they are dangerously close to a rocky abyss.
This motif is very popular. With slightly different color nuances in each case, the so-called "abyss picture" appears no less than four times in this collection.

Schutzengel – Motiv: „Abgrundbild“
Mit schützend ausgebreiteten Armen wacht ein in grünen und rosafarbenen üppigen Stoff gehüllter Engel über zwei Kinder. In ihr Spiel mit Ball und Reifen versunken, scheinen der kleine Junge und seine Schwester nicht zu bemerken, dass sie einem felsigen Abgrund gefährlich nahekommen.
Dieses Motiv ist sehr beliebt. Mit jeweils etwas unterschiedlicher Farbnuancierung kommt das sogenannte „Abgrundbild“ in dieser Sammlung gleich vier Mal vor.
I haven't posted for a while but that doesn't mean i haven't been out almost daily with my camera. I've been experimenting a little with film lately and have several rolls due back from the lab soon.
Sorry this is so out of focus. The boy can't stay still long enough for me to get a steady shot.
Photo taken with the wide angle lens adapter.
He licked the lens right after this.
Furthering my quest to attach junk onto hundreds of dollars of high quality optical tools here is my latest creation.
Drill a hole in a lens cap. (Yes that is a Nikon cap, but I found it in the street abandoned, so it was free)
Stick in an $8 door peephole.
Zoom in.
It actually does get a 180 degree view.
The Milwaukee Art Museum is a structure one cannot miss. Every angle in and around the building offers a unique photo op.
It wasn't pleasant standing in sub-zero temperatures waiting for the 'wings' to close at 5pm, but I'm glad I finally made it there - it was definitely poetry in the form of a building.
This abstract is part of a dinosaur slide in a playground. It had all sorts of interesting shapes and angles on it.
I was on the floor for a long time getting pictures like this. Azin is on the right but I didn't get the name of the ridiculously hot chick (there were SO MANY OF THEM) on the right.
