This is probably one of the most iconic buildings in Yilan. It is also one of the reasons why I came here. The building itself looks like it had sunk into the ground. If the weather is good enough, you can even take shot with a perfect reflection on the water. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't that great.

 

Lanyang Museum is a place where visitors can learn the history, culture, and landscape of Yilan.

 

Location: Toucheng Township, Taipei (Yilan)

A normal day in Dusseldorf, Germany. The view is amazing and the weather was great!

With elegant rhythm and commanding presence, this view captures one of the many grand arches and fluted Corinthian columns of the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. Originally conceived by architect Bernard Maybeck for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, the structure was meant to evoke a fallen Roman ruin—romantic, reflective, and timeless. But what was designed to be ephemeral has become a fixture of the city’s cultural and architectural identity.

 

In this photo, the massive columns dominate the foreground, their verticality drawing the eye upward toward the intricately carved capitals and open arch beyond. A soft, diffused sky offers contrast to the warm-toned faux-stonework of the Palace, which was originally made of wood and plaster, but rebuilt in concrete during the 1960s to preserve its beauty for generations to come. The symmetry of urns and repeating architectural motifs reinforces the Beaux-Arts principles that guided its design.

 

Seen through the arch is a glimpse of the colonnade and gardens that circle the central rotunda, reminding us how Maybeck’s vision was not just architectural, but experiential—meant to inspire awe, reverence, and quiet contemplation. Today, the Palace remains one of the most photographed and cherished spaces in the city. Locals walk their dogs here, wedding parties pose beneath its arches, and visitors marvel at how ephemeral design became eternal. The silence of the image captures that quiet San Francisco magic—where grandeur and grace still coexist.

No tenia pensat portar la càmera, però al decidir anar a l’hotel Florida vaig canviar d’opinió ràpidament, feia molt temps que ens venia de gust fer una nit aquí i, ja que venia, vaig dedicar una estona a fer alguna foto. Va ser una llàstima el temps que ens va fer, 30 minuts després d’arribar una boira ho tapava tot i no es veia res, ja fins a la nit, no vam tenir una estona amb una mica de visibilitat. L’endemà al matí tot i llevar-me per la sortida de sol, tampoc es va veure el sol i vam tenir un dia gris i boirós.

Sigui com sigui vaig aconseguir alguna foto interessant. Aquí us poso una panoràmica d’una part de la ciutat amb la torre Agbar a un costat, la Sagrada família al centre i les torres bessones de Barcelona a la dreta de la foto. Una cosa a destacar també és el rang lumínic de la imatge i que no ho sembla, ja que és una imatge molt fosca amb “poca llum” i, per tant, calia posar un temps d’exposició llarg, però compte amb la façana de la Sagrada Família, que té uns focus superpotents i és molt fàcil que surti cremada i he hagut de baixar molt la lluminositat d’aquesta zona.

A nivell d’edició, també, el més destacat ha sigut mirar de treure la bruma, per això, he aplicat bastant “Borrar Neblina” i contrast. També amb Photoshop vaig eliminar uns focus molt potents ( no sé si un camp de futbol o alguna cosa així, que distreien massa ).

As dawn breaks over the Bay, San Francisco awakens in a sweep of golden light and lingering night. From Twin Peaks, the city stretches endlessly toward the water, its street grid illuminated like circuitry beneath a soft, deep-blue sky. Market Street glows as a radiant orange spine running straight through the heart of the city—linking quiet residential neighborhoods in the foreground to the brilliant towers of downtown and the faint shimmer of the Bay Bridge beyond.

 

The view from this height captures San Francisco in transition: the last lights of night meeting the first blush of sunrise. The sky flickers with subtle color shifts—violet at the edges, rose on the horizon, and amber streaks across the bay’s surface. In the distance, fog begins to drift in slow motion over the hills, weaving a silver thread through the morning calm.

 

Standing here, it’s easy to feel the city’s rhythm—its balance between nature and architecture, movement and stillness. The sunrise over Twin Peaks isn’t just a view; it’s a reminder of how light transforms everything familiar into something extraordinary.

 

San Francisco at sunrise from Twin Peaks reveals the city’s geometry of light, landscape, and quiet anticipation before the day begins.
