Taiwan

 I spent a few weeks in Taiwan in 2004, and was lucky to be able to take a short tour of the country (granted, it is a small country!). I loved how green and mountainous some of the views were. The terrain was thick, lush, and green, and clouds loomed low over the peaks. I didn’t have as much fun at the time, though, especially after trying to walk in that little stream without shoes!

a shrubbery!

I see a lot of really cool, interesting plants while I’m walking around (my dad happens to live right across the street from a bike path, where there are all sorts of plants and trees (er… and garbage)). In this photo, I love the stark difference between the clearly defined foreground, and the beautiful green shapes and colors in the background, and how your eye travels in a lovely curve around the perimeter of the photo.
