Preparing to take wedding pictures - out on the street
 |
| From Several weekend walks |
This is a common thing in Taiwan with couples going to a wedding photo studio for a day long extravaganza at a time unrelated to their actual wedding. The studio provides costumes (the gown is likely not her real wedding dress) and settings both indoors and outdoors. The couple then gets a whole book of photos.

Digging work in the street - putting in some pipes
 |
| From Several weekend walks |
What is wrong with this picture? First the digger decides to block the entire street without warning to cars coming in either direction, though it is not a major thoroughfare. Second, look closely at the treads (or lack thereof) on the digger. It ended up doing as much damage to the street as repair work.
