I took this photo at about 5am one morning while visting Taipei in Taiwan. The presence of the small figure in the middle of the square (a mate of mine from back home in Australia) reveals somewhat the enormity of the National Concert Hall in the stock photos. I really like this photo because I have been to this popular Taipei landmark plenty of times before and there are always heaps of people all over the square - so to get the whole thing to ourselves and then capture it on camera was really rewarding for me.
