MARCH 17 - View from the rooftop deck on my new building, Xindian.
Xianjiyan hiking trails, Taipei. I've been on the Xianjiyan hiking trails before! I found them by accident last year while exploring, but it turns out they extend from where I was before to where I live now. The trailhead is not far from Jingmei night market. Faint silhouette of Taipei 101 in the top picture. Any adjustment to contrast or brightness degraded it, so this is the straight CD-R scan. Actually a lot of frames on this roll turned out so well that no or just the slightest adjustment was made.
Very old grave markers/tombs. My impression is that they are so old that no one tends to them and in modern times when hiking trails were created, they were just left well enough alone.
Hiking in the morning. Dharma Drum Mountain Int'l Meditation Group session in the afternoon. Beitou District, Taipei.
