For those who follow my adventure in China for a while, you can see that the mobile phone is, let say, "popular" on my portfolio... people always find time to play with their mobile even when they are supposed to be busy. When I'm in the bus or the metro, I often play the game to count how many people are not playing with their cellphone... the result is always terrific.
I have shot this photo in the old Qingdao. I've went one day to lost myself there by purpose in order to make some pictures. By the way, we are never totally lost, GPS in our friend!!
I have discovered a very narrow alley dedicated to street food. On both side, plenty of small open kitchens. It seems to be a popular spot in town... A perfect place to make some candid street portraits for me.
Almost all the people are waiting clients to come, cooking some food in advance and playing with phone in the same time.
I hope the lady won't forget skewers on the grill before it will get burned... This is China.
Ok, i'm addicted to the sight and sound of waterfalls. This is the eight waterfall shot in my 365. I didn't see there was a duck in the frame until I processed it. Too boot, he stood still for 3". This is the type of shot I like to try on the weekend as I have (usually) more time on my hands.

A fresh, newly opened Budweiser, or "happy water" to those in the UK.

Above is pictured the actual moment a filling station near my house ran out of fuel on Sunday night, 26th September. They were in the process of turning off the lights and puIling down the shutters. They had run out because for two days cretins had queued for an hour or more to fill their tanks, creating gridlock and foul air. So a rumour of a petrol/diesel shortage became a fact. Well done sheeple.....
If I went panic-buying drugs or alcohol because I'd heard a rumour that there might be distribution problems I'd probably end up in rehab. Is addiction to motor cars any better? Its also destructive to health. At least drugs and alcohol mostly affect the addict. Car pollution, congestion, noise and danger affects everyone.
Is this what we have descended to in London, the city with probably the best public transport in Britain, certainly the cheapest and most comprehensive? Pathetic. More information:

I was always 'the one' with the camera, but it wasn't until this past fall that I started using my camera as an extra appendage to my body. I know most of you can relate, when a family member says 'Really? You're taking a picture of that____(insert your noun)???' Or you slam on your brakes and pull off the road to take a shot of something that caught your eye. (This was taken in the fall, when I got hit hard with that strong Virus called Flickritis, lol)
My addiction could cost a LOT of money (if I had it) but so can many other addictions, and mine is good for my soul, and doesn't harm me or anyone else. So other than a gym and a healthy, clean eating addiction which I'm trying to work on and develop, this is a good addiction to have, i think.
once and for all. I have been a member of flickr since Jan 07. I have become hopelessly addicted and spend 6- 8 hours on flickr every day....90% of the time viewing and commenting on your pics.
Taking pics and posting has become a chore....trying to make Explore has dominated my thoughts too much. If I don't post pics or make "Explore" it causes me sadness. That's how bad I've become."
Pressure to keep up with commenting on ALL of my contact's pics everyday has left me no time to take pics or enjoy life. My mental and physical health has suffered as a result.
I am telling you all this because I have decided to make an overdue change. I'm not leaving flickr...but I am cutting my contact list down to about 20 instead of 150. I will only comment on ONE pix at your stream per day and will curtail my time on flickr to evenings...or weekends and only after I have taken care of other aspects of my day.
I will only post pics of my pets or wildlife if I think they are really really good. I do NOT expect any of you to coment on them....I will post only to use flickr as a place to keep my pics together and for my few remaining contacts. I hope you all understand. If you could see how neglected my appearance and home has become this year, you'd really understand.
I'm smiling here but I'm not very happy about my addiction and my forced curfew to rectify the problem.
Update: 4/11/11
Well, I haven't reduced my contact list since posting this back in 2008. I'm still posting / commenting on flickr everyday. I have not broken my Flickr addiction or changed my life. Oh well.....I'm sure one of these days I will.

In February 2011, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) published the first, and the most prominent, study to offer scientific evidence that cell phone use affects brain metabolism
Can I survive all the implications?
Even if I tried, could you be less than an addiction?
Don't you think I know there are so many others
Who would beg, steal and lie, fight, kill and die
Just to hold you?
Hold you like I do?
