《A year to remember: Favorite moments frozen in time.》
When I arrive in Taiwan in 2020, I didn't have a great hobby to spend my free time. I believe the Taiwanese beautiful nature and culture encouraged me to this beautiful hobby of mine. Even though I am not a fully professional photographer, I have a genuine feeling that I want other people to fell what I've felt when I take the pictures. I wish them to feel amazing by the pictures I've taken. |
