Taroko Gorge

Taroko Gorge, located in Taroko National Park (the part I visited is in Hualien County) is a breathtaking natural wonder--a 19-km-long canyon located in eastern Taiwan--and a popular tourist attraction. The beautiful turquoise hue of the water is due to its richness in minerals. The photos in this collection were taken at sites such as the Swallow Grotto (燕子口), famous for the holes in the rockface of the gorge that house swallows' nests, and the Lioufang Bridge (流芳橋). I captured the majority of the shots as I walked along the Shakadang Trail (砂卡礑). Further along the trail, there are a deep pool, a waterfall and other attractions. However, due to the impending rain, we didn't walk on further.

  1. 風景其實很難拍的,因為看起來美的實際拍出來後,往往會因為背景複雜而顯得很平凡。
    這次的太魯閣系列照片處理得不錯,有些應該會很平凡的看起來也一樣很美。11、26、28、29、32這幾張比較平凡之外(這些景通常都不如看時美),其他都很不錯。太魯閣的特色,也就是岩石(紋理和色澤)和水(清澈的感覺)都有表現出來。
    很遺憾的是還是有過曝的情況,這是相機的限制,沒辦法。等你RAW再熟練一些後還會有更好的表現。
    加油囉,很棒。這次去台中時我相機也會帶去,順便帶個閃光燈讓你練練。
