While I was taking photos of Taitung, Taiwan, I got these images. The first image features a young girl deeply focused on something in her hands, while a smiling girl in the background contrasts with her serious demeanor. The series progresses with a powerful close-up of the girl’s direct gaze, emphasizing her expressive features. As we pull back, her gesture softens into a smile, maintaining continuity with the earlier scene. The final image captures six children peering from a vehicle (later on they told me that they are on the way to swimming in a nearby river), each looking in different directions, adding dynamic energy to the series.
