Ten of My Chinese Photos Randomly Chosen
Ten of My Chinese Photos Randomly Chosen
As I've been doing for the past little while I have chosen from the thousands of photos I have taken over more than 12 years here in China for your viewing. Some you may have seen before but all have been remastered and framed. Please take a couple of minutes and should you have any questions about them I'll do my best to answer them. Take a short break from the political battles - it will be good for your health.
1. Bird's Eye View - taken through my apartment window, Zhengzhou, Henan Province
2. An ancient painting photographed at a 1,000 year old Buddhist Temple
3. A flower from the garden at the 1,000 year old Buddhist Temple
4. Dancing at the riverside park in Zhengzhou.
5. Focusing on the game
6. Open air gallery in Zijingshan Park, Zhengzhou
7. Prelude to Spring
8. "English Corner" at Zijingshan Park, Zhengzou. On Sunday mornings both children and adults gather to practise their English speaking skills.

Start your day with some photos rather than political battles - live longer and happier.
These are really nice photos Buzz, although they do start to look similar to each other after a while.
It's great you have found such a gratifying way to spend some of your free times in China.
Almost all of my time is free time these days, spent mostly on photography, reading, watching movies and posting on NT.
As I said at the beginning of the article, you may well have seen most of them previously if you had been following my photo-essays over the years, so that might be a reason for your thinking of the similarity. As I am limited to subjects to photograph here in China there is bound to be some similarity, just as there is a similarity in most of the photos that Ansel Adams took.
What is that game they are playing in #5 ?
It's a type of checkers. I don't know if it's called "Chinese checkers".
All fine, unique images, and, the usual high-quality photo essay. In image 7, I see a number of possible derivatives.
Examples?
Another excellent essay, Buzz.
The pigeon/window photo is brilliant.
