Shark Fin Soup and Dead Sharks
First of all, I have to say that today was a pretty good day. Craig Ferguson organized another photowalk, which I will cover once I’ve processed the rolls of Tri-X.

Streets Saturday: Ocean Park
A couple weekend ago we made what has become a biannual trip to Ocean Park in Hualien, central Taiwan. It happens when you have kids.

I know Taiwan is a small island but there’s no way you can cover it in 4 days…but if you base yourself in Taipei you can cover (in general swaths) the cultures of Taiwan in 4 days. And that’s exactly the idea that a contest entrant whose email was waiting for me in my inbox this morning had. Check out her video:
