A few from Lukang one of the early commercial centers in Taiwan. Many temples and craftsmen around there.
Wow, that 4th image is powerful!

I would remember such a good picture, so I don't think so.

Glad I could enlight you!

Dust are important for photographs!
Sometimes an enemy: on the sensor or film slides/negatives. When the Mie-light-scattering of particles in the air turn the sky greyish without a single cloud.
Sometimes an allied: when the particles makes a sunrise or sunset more spectacular.
...

Now I will stop. Sorry for going off topic. Don't want to get another infraction.
Douglas very interesting and agreed. Personally I know dust cause some awesome sunrises/sunsets. I lived in Tucson, AZ and that was certainly the case. Appreciate your insights garnered from your research.

This image keeps growing on me-makes me think of Boris Karloff or Lon Chaney Jr.-something sinister and macabre in there.

To me, this is a wonderful capture...But where I live, it would be very hard to find people dressed like this...People around here walk around half naked....eeek...
Thanks Javier!

There is already below freezing at night here and only some 10 degrees C in daytime. No half naked people anymore, but I did saw a man in shorts yesterday... When we get ice on the lakes I could visit a sauna and shoot some pictures for you when they run from the sauna to the whole in the ice, and then run back (faster).

It's a long way from California!

Javier,
this last one is riveting. Very intense and darkly beautiful. Captivates me. Will post soon have been stockpiling and got a bunch of good graffiti yesterday too.
