 Taiwan - Travel Photography and Stock Images by Darby Sawchuk - dsphotographic.com
As I was travelling through Taiwan and exploring the area around the Jiji small rail line, I realized that my way back to Taipei could pass through one of the country’s favourite destinations: Sun Moon Lake.
Continuing with my recent trend of posting images from Taiwan, I have just added a gallery of photos of what is currently the tallest building in the world: Taipei 101.
Taiwan was my first stop on the journey I began at the beginning of 2006, so these photos are long over due, but I hope that I can soon make up for the delay be showing off some of my adventures there.

The museum is currently holding a special photograph exhibition that sets out to document the development of photography in Taiwan from the years 1871 through 1970.
