A New Show at Beechbrook called "Great Wall." Let me know what you think. The setting is winter which is bleak and drab in central China. It is also about the only time to get blue sky. Though the pictures are bleak, I think the many colorful people create a refreshing contrast. Most of these pictures were taken near the Chinese New Year -- Jan 29, I think. That accounts for the masses of people. Most of the "people" pictures are taken at the same time--on the wall. A few non-Great Wall pictures were tossed in near the end, because I couldn't resist--mainly because I was tired of looking at the Great Wall so long, and thought you might be too. But in defense of including them, they are drab and interesting and very Chinese. They are also taken in late fall or mid-winter. Of all the photos on my computer, I don't know why I put these together--maybe because I am so glad winter is past and summer is around the corner. Maybe in time for Fall, I will put together the lovely spring-time plum and cherry blossoms pictures from places like the Purple Bamboo Park. We'll see. Well this was an afternoon project--I hope someday to have time to develop skills that so many of you have in creating truly creative artistic shows. Till then...
