Some words from TC about the photo:
'‘Masks have for some time been mandatory inside all public transport in Taiwan. I was taking the escalator at a metro station in Taipei recently when I noticed a couple on the next escalator, playing with each other's hair. I thought this was cute and brought my camera up when they exchanged a brief "kiss" through their matching black masks. I didn't think much about it until, not long after I'd posted the shot online, I got a message from the man in the photo, saying he and his girlfriend were the couple in the shot, and how much they loved it. Of course I sent them a copy. It was a wonderful feeling and really made my day.'‘
