As a civil servant for Taiwan's capital city government, my daily workload is probably among the heaviest in the nation. Fortunately, the lightweight and portable nature of modern smartphones, coupled with their increasingly sophisticated camera functions, allows me to capture images anytime, anywhere. While I can't often visit exceptionally scenic locations, my daily routine of moving in and around the Taipei City Hall building frequently presents moments where light and architecture dance together. These beautiful scenes never fail to capt draw me in.
