I saw a picture of this online and had to go take a look. It's in a place called Zhudong (Bamboo East), and is in great contrast to what always feels like a really grey kind of place.

I can't figure any logic, pattern or reason for it all. These are just the backs of old buildings above a small river, near the traditional market for the town.

I like it. A lot.

Here’s the second photo from my Munich subway series.

This time, I photographed the Candidplatz station – and I have to say, this one makes you smile just by looking at it. The walls glow like a rainbow, flooding the entire space with color. Strangely enough, the square above ground is quite dull – almost bleak. But once you descend, it’s like stepping into an entirely different world. A hidden gem beneath the grey.

When planning the shot, I faced a problem: if I waited for two trains like in the first image, they’d block the vibrant spectrum completely. But without any train at all, the photo felt too static – too polished. So I tried something in between.

I timed the exposure to capture just the end of a departing train, blurring it into motion while still leaving the full rainbow visible. It worked beautifully: now there’s movement, but the station remains the star of the image.

I kind of regret not taking a photo of the grey, uninspired surface above – just to contrast it with this explosion of color below. Maybe next time. For now, this is one of the most joyful and graphically powerful subway spaces I’ve ever seen.

There's this really cool reflective wall near the museum that I love! I call it the rainbow wall. All my dolls look good standing there. I think it has magical powers.
