Taiwan pictures from a phone

Took some pictures using my phone when I was holidaying in Taiwan.

This was taken on the SQ flight to Taipei. Food was not too bad la!

Squid ink bread toast. The green thingy on top is the minced parsley and garlic. It was actually quite nice. Too bad I can't buy them back to Singapore.

The bakchang sold at Seven Eleven. You'll never find them in Singapore's 7-11. The 7-11 stores there sold almost anything and everything from mini shampoo, single-use toothbrushes to lunchbox meals and espresso coffee. Nice and really convenient when you compare to what you can only get in the Singapore version.

Fried stuff store at a night market. Not really keen on what they were selling though.

Day market to where I stayed. Pretty much the same as what Singapore used to have. You can also find lots of these markets in Malaysia and Indonesia. The hawkers sold cooked and uncook food there.

Taiwan Trip June 2008

Went on holiday to Taiwan last week. I can say that it's one of the most relaxing trip I've been to for a long long time. There were lots of new and interesting location to go to. Traveled to places like the Taroko Gorge, Hualien, Taitung, Taipei, YangMingShan, JiuFen, JinShan, JinGuaShi. There were lots to see and lots to eat. I bet that almost 40-50% of the pictures I took are of food. I'm putting up just some pictures I took during the trip. Some were HDRed.








Do comment on the pictures... :-)

HDR

How many of you have heard of the term 'HDR'? HDR stands for High Dynamic Range imaging. It is were multiple exposures of the same scene but shot with different speeds to create under / Correct / over exposed pictures and combining them together in a picture. You can check out HDR from here. (http://hdrcreme.com/)
I'm currently playing a lot with HDR. Very interesting shots where you can get both the brightest and darkest tones from multiple pictures of the same scene and rendering a new photo.
Here are some of my examples. Pls commend on them. Thanks!!!
