    Loving those Pagodas

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ ☁️ 70 °F

    I love this style of architecture! I wish that we could have the roof of our house made into this style but I know that it's not possible. We own a co-op and one of their first rules about construction is that all of the buildings in the development have to be the same. I understand that they want a uniform and cohesive look but would some originality really be so terrible?もっと詳しく

    Netting

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ ☁️ 68 °F

    The nets that are strung up under the roofs of the pagodas are a bit distracting but I can understand why they are there. If something were to crumble and fall, would this thin netting really be able to catch, and hold, it though? Maybe for a moment, or two, but I don't think that it would hold for very long.もっと詳しく

    It's Me

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    I think that I've had more pictures taken of me on this trip than any other time that we've gone away. I'm finding that I enjoy having my picture taken. It helps me remember all the places that we've been to and all that I've seen. I just wish that I was a bit more comfortable with my posing. I'm guessing that will, hopefully, come in time.もっと詳しく

    Where is Everyone?

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    I'm still surprised to see such a popular tourist destination so empty, especially considering what a populous country China is. I'm guessing that the local people don't visit here very often. It's kind of the same way as, back home, we are so close to the Statue of Liberty but we never really go there. I think I've been trying there just once in my whole life.もっと詳しく

    Kathy

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    That guy on the left was one of the Canadian people in our tour group. I'm noticing that he's trying to work himself into the background of nearly every shot that I take of Kathy. Is he stalking her or something? It's starting to annoy me. If anything, he should be staying close to his own wife, not mine. We've noticed that they seem to be somewhat distant with each other. If they are not getting along, why go on a trip together? We'll, it's not our business, I suppose.もっと詳しく

    Looking Down

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    I like this photo of me a lot but that yellow caution sign on the left is bugging me. I wish I could have moved it but I wouldn't dare. I don't know what the rules are for things like that, since it's government property, and the Chinese police seem very no nonsense and firm. It's better, and safer, just to leave things as they are.もっと詳しく

    Group Photo

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    Once we were all back together someone suggested a group photo which was a great idea. It's nice to have a shot with everyone in it so that we can remember our time exploring China together. I'll have to check with Kathy to get everyone's names. She much better with that sort of thing than I am. I remember Lisa, our tour guide, being a bit aggravated and impatient because all of us wanted a group photo with their own cell phone camera. I understand that she has a schedule to keep but she should understand that most of us will probably never get a chance to be here again and really want photos to remember it. This shot is from Kathy's phone.もっと詳しく

    The Way Out

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    This exit pathway looks nice, with it's covering looking like it was taken from the architecture of the buildings in the Temple of Heaven but it's obvious that it was built much later. Strangely, this area looks older than the original temple grounds. I'm guessing that this area doesn't get the same level of care as the temple itself.もっと詳しく

    On Our Way

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    Once again, I'm lagging behind everyone but there's so many fascinating things to see, and photograph, that I just can't help it. That's Kathy walking ahead of me with Fiona. Despite them being quite a bit older than us, Fiona and her husband, Peter, seem to be the tour group members that we've become the most friendly with. They are very nice people. It's more enjoyable to have people to share these great experiences with.もっと詳しく

    The Game

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    This is a shot that I felt like I had to stop and get. Two locals, playing Chinese Chess, so intent on their game that they aren't even aware that they are being photographed. This is the sort of shot that really captures some local flavor and, in my opinion, is what street photography is all about. I dabble in this genre of photography sometimes but it takes a special mindset to really do it well.もっと詳しく

    Food Shopping

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 63 °F

    We stopped in a grocery store, wanting to get some snacks to eat, but everything we saw seemed to be past the expiration date. We couldn't figure out why everything this store was selling was stale so we didn't buy anything. We learned later that that date on the food isn't an expiration date, like it is back home. The date stamped on the product here is the date that it was manufactured. So, everything here was actually fresh and quite recently made. It's so easy to make the wrong assumption when you're expecting things to be like they are at home but, honestly, what else could we think? Everywhere else we've ever been to treats that stamp as an expiration date. Well, we learned something new today.もっと詳しく

    Stormtrooper

    2018年9月27日, 中国 ⋅ 61 °F

    I was curious to see a movie in China, especially if it was going to be something as good as a Star Wars film, but Kathy was too tired for a movie. She's not a Star Wars fan anyway so she wouldn't enjoy it, especially when she's so tired. It turned out to be a moot point because the theater was closed anyway.
    I used to work in a movie theater so I'm always curious to see what they are like in other places. I've been to theaters in Hong Kong and the Philippines already. I was was hoping to add China to the list but it's not going to happen tonight.    もっと詳しく
