It was an unwritten rule back then that you couldn't take pictures in temples. Nor was even drawing allowed. Lin would burn paper money as an offering to the gods, all the while stealing glances at their silver hats to imprint an image of them in his mind. Then he'd go home and draw them from memory.
當時廟宇有個不成文規定，就是不准拍照，甚至連現場描繪都不被允許，林啟豐只好「提籃假燒金」，假裝到廟裡膜拜，再藉機偷偷觀察神帽的造型，牢記在心後回家反覆練習。
