I recently returned from Taiwan and a member of this Forum I felt committed to make some pictures for you Gentlemen. So here is part 1 of the Medals from the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. I think specially now with all the chinese fake medals around, it's interesting to see how accurate and beautiful the real medals are manufactured. so please enjoy…

Great stuff! This fills a real need, since Asian info and pictures are relatively hard to find and read. Keep it up.

thank you Hugh, there is more to come soon. I just have to make some photoshop work on the other pictures. It was not a easy job to make good pictures through the glass and the guards gave me more than once a very suspicious look after about 30 minutes of picturing and leaning against the displays. and of course I had a big crazy gleam in my eyes.
