Crystal with fans | Yueyang, China
Olympus OM-10 | Tmax 400
In Yueyang 1999, many local folk had yet to encounter their very first real-life black person, and most wanted photographic proof. Unnerving at the time, hilarious now.

Olympus OM-10 | Fuji Superia 400
I'd been having slow camera issues because my battery was low. This wasn't intentional but I prefer to think of it as an artistic choice. Taken during a dance class at Hunan Normal University in Changsha.
Mannequin | Xi'an
Olympus OM-10 | TMAX 400
I have no idea what was going on here, I just thought it was funny. Wish I'd had time to set up a better photo, but we drove past them so quickly.

Koi at Yu Yuan | Shanghai
Olympus OM-10 | Kodak Gold 100
The koi were attuned to the clapping of the crowd; clapping meant food. Chinese tourists on opposite sides of the pond would start clapping wars to attract them. It was a little bizarre and probably confusing for the fish, but made for a good photo.
Yu Yuan Garden | Shanghai
Olympus OM-10 | Kodak Gold 100
In the heart of Shanghai is a beautiful garden complex featuring ponds, pagodas and classical Chinese pavillions. Of course like any part of non-rural China there are always loads of visitors, including locals. But with some patient wandering, it's possible to find yourself alone for fleeting moments of tranquility.
Ron | Train station, China
Olympus OM-10 | Tmax 400 | Forte Polywarmtone Plus FB
Ron was an old perv who'd managed to wrangle his way onto a student trip several years in a row. Our outspoken group was the one to finally get him expelled. Not sure if this kid was fascinated by his overall appearance or just by the headphones.
