Reflections of a Coming Typhoon - 來襲颱風的倒影

Tonight I stepped outside my apartment in Lingya just as the first bands of Typhoon Danas rolled in.  Grey skies pressed low; every shop-front sign burned brighter in the gloom.  I love how rain turns a familiar street into a film set—reflections double the neon, cars glide rather than drive, and pedestrians hurry past like extras between takes.

Shooting stills on the Fujifilm X-Pro2, I leaned into its Classic Chrome look to emphasize the cool tones while letting the reds and greens of traffic lights pop.  For motion, the DJI Action 5 Pro handled gusty drizzle without complaint—small, stable, and easy to wipe dry between shots.

Moments before the heavier sheets arrived, I caught the scene in this post’s hero frame: twin rows of headlights paused at the intersection, their light stretching across slick asphalt.  It’s a photograph about anticipation—of wind, of rain, and of a city collectively holding its breath.

However Danas unfolds, I hope these images remind us that beauty hides even in uneasy weather.  Stay safe out there and, if you venture out, pack a lens cloth.

今晚當颱風丹娜絲第一波外圍環流抵達時，我走出苓雅的住處。低垂的灰雲壓頂，店家招牌在陰暗中顯得格外鮮明。我喜歡雨水把熟悉街道變成電影場景的感覺——霓虹倒映成雙，汽車像滑行而非行駛，行人匆匆穿梭宛如臨時演員。

用 Fujifilm X-Pro2 拍攝靜態照片時，我選擇 Classic Chrome 模擬，讓冷調更突出，同時保留紅綠燈的鮮豔點綴。動態畫面交給 DJI Action 5 Pro，在細雨中依然穩定；體積小、方便清潔，是風雨拍攝的好夥伴。

大雨真正傾盆而下前，我捕捉到這張主圖：兩排車燈在路口靜候，光線在濕滑柏油上拉出長長倒影。這是一張關於「等待」的照片——等待風、雨，以及一座城市屏息的瞬間。

無論丹娜絲最後帶來何種風雨，希望這組影像提醒大家：不安的天氣裡一樣藏著美好。外出拍攝務必注意安全，也記得帶條擦鏡布
