From mid-August to mid-November of 2008, I lived in Chiayi, Taiwan, near the east end of the city of about 250,000 people. I covered hundreds of miles on foot venturing around the city, looking for things such as Buddhist shrines, local markets and parks. On some of my adventures through the city I trekked through Chiayi Park. The park is huge: it has some historic buildings, a tall tower, bridges, creeks, statues, a shrine and playgrounds; and it's right next to the city's baseball stadium. One part of the park also has this series of brick doorways of various shapes. The doorways caught my eye: I'm just intrigued by receding doorways, and this group was different from others because of the shapes. The challenge for me was to find the right angle with my camera that would draw the viewer in as the real thing drew me in.
