Good morning to you :).
I hope you are enjoying a productive and relaxing day. Last week I discovered some untouched photos from my Taiwan trip and wanted to share with you some of my favorites from this “lost file.” All of these photos were shot on 35mm film. These photos are from my visit up to the Hydrangea Flower Field in Taiwan, Taipei.
There were a large number of families, couples, and groups of friends visiting to bask in the beauty of the flowers and trees. I may have been the only person visiting alone, but when you travel solo often it isn’t a concern. As you can see some of them allowed me to photograph them. My favorite photo is on the very bottom. Explanation will be given below!
This photograph which you see here is my favorite photo from my entire trip. After visiting the Hydrangea Fields I took the bus to explore nearby areas. This was on one of the hikes (that I went on with sandals, let’s celebrate shoe diversity). I remember reaching a random hill, and I caught this duo just about to walk down together. It was another hot & humid day in Taiwan, but the the views were dreamy and the winds, comforting. They two were quiet. Seeing that she was fixing her hat, I assumed that they had just taken a break and were heading down to continue their hike. Something about capturing that moment was wonderful for me. To see this duo, assumably a daughter and father spending time together when perhaps she has other friends to choose to hang out with, or perhaps she struggles to make friends and her father wanted to give her company. We will never know, and that’s the beauty of it.
More to come :)
