Mr. Zhiang - a photo on Flickriver

Mr. Zhiang

I've been able to mix some business with pleasure recently. I'd been on assignment in Nanning but managed some free time over the weekend and got to meet three of my Flickr friends face to face for the first time.

Anissa, Vern, and Suri are three very talented young photographers and really nice people too. Somehow all three of them managed to abscond with one of my cameras for hours at a time and then use said camera to make better photographs than me. Not surprising really, but still, unseemly somehow! Check their photostreams for their interpretations of our three separate walks.

This is Mr. Zhiang from Hunan Province who makes a living as a chef/performing artist. He makes these crepe-like concoctions called shuaibin and in the process tosses dough all around over the place. Good stuff... but Suri ate most if it. I mean she really went after the stuff. You can see more of Mr. Zhiang at work on my blog.

No rest for the weary, home two days then Guangzhou, Shenzen and Hong Kong.

I sincerely hope to catch up with people one day soon. Honestly, I do.
