Since I’m now tutoring a second student in the evening at Starbucks, there are even more pictures of Starbucks this week.

Nothing beats good, natural side-lighting.

The weather this week started wonderfully.
But turned cold and wet rather quickly.

At one point I swear I saw an Eskimo.
Of course, I spent a few hours this week at Starbucks tutoring Linda.

Taking photos, especially street shots, [...]

Train stations make for great street photography, don’t they? There are the convergence of the human and the industrial, both of which are common components of the genre. To be honest though, I’m not a fan of Taiwan Railway stations in Taipei. They are utilitarian and dull with virtually no natural lighting. In addition, the [...]
