A vertical shot of a rustic woodland trail blanketed in fallen autumn leaves. Large, textured tree trunks frame the path in the foreground, leading the eye toward a clearing with green grass in the background. The scene is filled with warm, earthy tones and a soft, natural light.

A narrow, leaf-covered dirt path winds through a dense, overgrown garden or wooded area. On the right, a weathered wooden picket fence is partially submerged in a thick blanket of dark green English ivy, which also climbs the surrounding trees and spills onto the path. The background features thin, bare branches and a soft, out-of-focus hillside under muted, overcast light, creating a quiet and slightly mysterious atmosphere.

this is the view from one of my internships this year - isn’t this insane ??

A scenic golden hour view from a coastal hillside overlooking the ocean. The sun sits low on the horizon, casting a warm orange glow across a layered landscape of rolling hills and a misty coastline. In the foreground, silhouettes of wild brush and an evergreen tree frame the shot, while a faint lens flare appears near the center.

A wide-angle, slightly blurred landscape view of a traditional Chinese-style moon bridge with a high, white-railed arch and red brick sides crossing a calm lake. In the background, lush green hills rise under a cloudy sky, and a small red-roofed pavilion sits at the water's edge. The scene is framed by soft, out-of-focus tree branches in the foreground.

the rest of the lovely finds I captured at national taiwan university | 📸: canon 6d

A top-down view of several colorful koi fish—including orange, white, and pale yellow varieties—swimming in dark, rippling water. A bright green fern frond leans over the edge of the pond in the upper right corner.

A close-up, soft-focus shot of a single pink hibiscus flower dusted with fresh raindrops. The center shows a prominent yellow stamen, set against a blurred background of deep green leaves.

Two white spider lilies (Hymenocallis) in full bloom, showcasing their unique long, spindly petals and delicate central cups. They are positioned against a dark, textured green background of garden foliage.

A rustic wooden trellis stands in a lush garden, supporting climbing rose bushes with small pink buds. Two hanging planters are suspended from the frame: one featuring yellow flowers and the other with delicate pink portulaca blooms.

perspectives and other quiet scenery at national taipei university. this is also the college my father attended so it was cool to walk around even though school was out of session. | 📸: canon 6d

- A low-angle shot of a tall row of royal palm trees lining a wet sidewalk on a rainy day. A person with a bright blue umbrella walks away from the camera, and the lush green foliage of other trees creates a canopy on the right.

- A wide, symmetrical view of a long, paved road lined with towering palm trees leading toward a large, historic brick building with a prominent arched window. People on bicycles and a few cars are visible on the damp road under an overcast sky.

- A peaceful outdoor scene of a wooden picnic table sitting on a lush green lawn surrounded by tall, leafy trees. The focus is soft, highlighting the dappled light and the trunk of a large tree in the foreground.

- A quiet indoor scene featuring three white modern chairs around a small round table tucked under a large, multi-paned window. Soft light filters through the window, illuminating the brown tiled floor and a small sign in Chinese characters on the wall.

stunning flower spotted at national taipei university | 📸: canon 6d

A top-down close-up of a pink lotus flower with layered, delicate petals. The center features a bright green, circular seed pod surrounded by a ring of yellow stamens. In the soft-focus background, a large, dark green lotus leaf and murky water provide a natural, moody contrast to the bright bloom.

The rest of my garden photos at Taipei’s National Palace Museum | 📸: canon 6d

A long, open-air wooden pavilion sits on the edge of a green pond. The building is surrounded by green lawn, large rocks, and tropical plants, with a dense forest rising in the background.

A wide shot of a large, traditional wooden pavilion built directly over a pond. A white, zigzagging bridge connects the pavilion to the shore, and mist-covered green mountains rise in the far distance.

A view of a two-story traditional wooden pavilion nestled among large trees. A small stone bridge crosses a rocky stream in the foreground, surrounded by manicured shrubs.

A wide shot of a traditional Chinese-style covered bridge with a tiled roof. Several people are leaning against the wooden railing, looking down at a dark, rocky stream filled with fallen orange leaves.

looking at koi fish at the national palace museum in taipei | 📸: canon 6d

A long, traditional wooden pavilion with a curved grey-tiled roof stretches along the edge of a dark pond. Several visitors lean over a white stone railing to look into the water. Large, dense deciduous trees hang over the structure, creating a serene, shaded park atmosphere.

A top-down, close-up view of dozens of large carp and koi crowded together in dark water. Most of the fish are dark grey or black, with one prominent white and orange fish in the upper left. Many of the fish have their circular mouths wide open at the water's surface waiting to be fed.

A view through a decorative, gourd-shaped "moongate" opening in a white wall, leading into a traditional Asian garden pavilion. Inside the covered walkway, a group of people are gathered along a low white wall, looking out over a calm pond. The pavilion features a rustic wooden post-and-beam ceiling and a brick-paved floor, creating a serene, framed perspective of the garden.

Hello all ! It’s been a while since I uploaded since starting my internships as a mental health counselor trainee so I’ve been really busy. But I’ve been realizing that photography is an outlet for me as a form of art, so I wanna try being back on flashes again while in my last semester of classes.
