Temples

Sunday, July 23rd, 2006

As far as the time on the weekend permitted, we were visiting some temples in Shanghai.

I took this shot of a monk resting just while walking by. It turns out to be a very nice composition of light and shades on his traditional dress and his face.

Shanghai Night

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

My business trip through Asia took me from Singapore to Shanghai. Its beautiful Shanghai skyline was quite impressive at night time. The TV tower is of course a highlight. A mini tripod came handy to get sharp shots at night time. 

Bamboo Scaffolding

This might be a typical sight in Asia but not for a European. I saw this construction site when I was strolling through Hongkong. The whole scaffolding of the builing seems to be built of bamboo. Looks quite amazing to me.
