Street Scenes: Ximending



More on GOOD NEWS!...




Street Scenes: Ximending: "

Before I start today’s post, let me say thanks to the new visitors.  WordPress.com has an awesome feature where they pick a blog to feature along with about 7-8 others on their front page.  This has increased my traffic and made me thankful that I’m not running my own server!  I learned that I was “freshly pressed” through a comment and checked my email.  As of only 12 hours later, I have 546 hits today alone, and counting.  This isn’t bad at all for a blog which usually averages 30 per day!


If you’d like, go ahead and subscribe.  I post daily photos of my time in Taiwan and would love to see some more comments.  Thanks to those of you who have commented in the past! If anyone with a photo or relevant travel blog is interested, I’m also always up for trading blogroll links.


Today’s post shows some street scenes from Taipei.  Specifically, this is Ximending, a district known for its fashionable shops and plethora of advertising.  It’s a pretty “trendy” district, and full of young people.  Of course, because this is Taiwan, street food is still all over.


These shots were mostly taken using the new Nikkor 35mm f/1.8.  In addition, I used the 70-300mm on some of these photos.
