    Watchmen #1 This is Mr. Goh from the K2 Watch Company - immersed in his work and surrounded by an amazing array of vintage equipment. Coming from the world of film cameras, I fully expected him to be a grouchy old fart. Someone that is as taciturn as he is skilled. However, he turned out to be a very warm fellow with a willing smile. Not only is Mr. Goh a master of his craft, he also charges very reasonably and his turnaround rate is excellent.  Mr. Goh set up shop in 1982 and has never stopped since. In the foreground are two framed photographs of a younger Mr. Goh in training. Apart from a thinner head of hair, he remains largely unchanged. He is just as intense when working, and is still using the same magnifying eyepiece (I kid). He told me that he would like a picture of himself, so I shot and made a print for him. He does not use email and has no time for the something as frivolous as the internet. I think he will like the print.

    En Bloc Emptiness Empty racks standing erect and unused, long forgotten notices fluttering limply behind yellowed panels.Rubbish and refuse strewn across the dusty grey while cats with misshapen tails futilely scavenge for scrapes.The original inhabitants are long gone, leaving only hollowed spaces of wear and neglect to mark their passing.

    With all the beef going on between Taiwan and the Beijing, you would be surprised to see the sheer amount of Mainland tourists.

    This is the rather ramshackle Puli Bus Station en route to Cingjing mountain where I froze my ass off.I don’t recall much of the place aside from sniveling in my lousy tee-shirt and the shouting attendants that herd you on and off the buses.

    Taiwan’s very impressive High-Speed Rail. They gave us free chocolate cakes so that is always a plus.
