Taipei - I call it "the gray city". The sky was always gray and the smog made it difficult to breathe. That's why I converted all the pictures here to black and white, although I photographed with color slide film. Even on the slide film, there was hardly any color. Maybe it was because the film had been in the fridge for over a year. Better no colors than pale ones.
