Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Hello everyone! My name is Min Hao from Taiwan.

One and a half year ago I went to a small town in the country side of Japan to study their language for one year, and after that I moved to Tokyo to study Photography Art in a professional school. It was supposed to take me two years but only after 6 months I gave up and returned to Taiwan. The reason why I gave it up is another long story though.

I have a Pentax K3 and DA21, DA100, and Sigma 18-35. Pancake lenses are the reason why I chose Pentax, and I never feel regret about this decision.
Actually I have owned KM, K7, K5, and K5IIs before, and K3 is my latest upgrade.

Carrying K3 along with DA21 on the street is a joy! I love taking pictures of people on the streets. The funny thing is, the place where I studied language in Japan is not in a populated area, and therefore I started taking pictures of buildings. If you're interested, you might find some photos of buildings in my flickr albums.

I'd really like to share more new works and thoughts with everyone on this forum. And wish you all happy shooting!

Welcome to the forum, maybe you can pick up your studies later on, when the time is more right for you.

Welcome to the forum Min Hao.

I looked at your Flickr set. I liked them very much. You have a distinctive style and "voice".

Look forward to seeing more of your contributions here. (Maybe the lessons you learnt from the course in Japan, including why you gave it up?)
