You know those pictures of 3D sidewalk chalk drawings that you’ll occasionally get forwarded into your inbox by a co-worker? This is like that, except that you’re encouraged to both step in to the images and to take pictures.
How many hipsters does it take to change a lightbulb?
Some obscure number you’ve probably never heard of, anyway.
On to this week’s street photos of Taipei.
I’m doing this as a Random Encounter since I already published an article on the Taipei Astronomical Museum before and it really hasn’t changed much since then. So, these are just some pictures of the Taipei Astronomical Museum taken on Children’s Day.
This year Children’s Day happened to coincide with a local holiday, Tomb Sweeping Day. Taking advantage of Children’s Day actually being a day when kids didn’t have to go to school and parents didn’t have to work, many museums, education centers, the zoo, and so on offered free admission to every parent with child.
Very cool.
I like to take photos. If you weren’t aware of that, take a look at any other article in this blog. Or the domain name. I also like to sketch. It’s something that I’ve been doing ever since i used to sit in the furthest back corner of algebra class drawing rather sick and perverse, yet comical pictures of Mr. Ward. I’m not actually good at sketching, but if we only expressed our inner artist in the ways we knew we would do well, there would be no need for karaoke bars. In fact, it can be said that I am as good at drawing as every single person who I’ve ever heard doing karaoke is at singing.
This is the last one from Beitou park, I promise. Well, at least until the next time my wife wants to head to Beitou for a hot springs bath. This time the encounter doesn’t revolve around people but instead a single feature of the park: a fountain. Fountains make both a great center of attention for people to watch and background to photograph those watching people against.

You don’t get down from an elephant. You get down from a goose.
