Back to Taitung again, already miss it!

It's been a year since I left Taitung and I can't wait to be back. To me it's a place I look forward to go "back" to, like a home, because it's so beautiful. Indeed, as soon as I arrived at the airport, I already felt at home with the clean and refreshing air, and the colors blue and green were once again filling my vision.

While I was here a year ago, I had many opportunities to see the fighter jets train and land at a nearby air force base but never had the chance to photograph it. This time, I made the effort to capture a few shots. The landing strip is parallel to a major bridge, making it possible to see the jets at almost the same height and up close. Here's a F5E training plane.

And then, it's all the way into the wild!

The scenery along the way are just all too familiar, and riding a scooter along the coast in the ocean breeze is the best way to tour this coast.

Very soon, I was back in the town where I spent a year, it was like being home again.

And needless to say, a few night shots are a must!
