Beijing South Terminal 2019. The CR400BF covers the 117km (73 miles) between Tianjin and Beijing in 30 minutes at a standard operating speed of 350km/h (217mph).
Our guides, from Guilin Photography Tours, setup an opportunity to go into some peoples homes on our first day.
It's one thing to be walking around an ancient village but something else entirely to be invited into a home and photograph people within their surroundings.
This lady, to me, was absolutely beautiful both in her appearance and in spirit. So was so welcoming when we came in and was so willing to be a subject for our cameras.
This is one of my favourite moments from the trip and one of my favourite shots from the couple of weeks that I was in China.

We're in Missouri. Appeared directly to our north in early afternoon. Heard it was over Iowa. 60,000 ft high but you could see it with your eyes. It was surprising how quickly it moved to the east and out of our view within 10 minutes.
Local TV station KMIZ featured this photo on their 5 o'clock Breaking News tonight.
Today after work, I called my Mother to check in with her as I do. And, she was telling me about the birds on her porch. I asked her if there were any really good ones (they're all good, except Ravens ... who are much too loud and squawky ... always barking to Odin and all), and she said it was just the usual LBJ's which I hadn't heard before, so I said, "Ooh, what are them?" (because I like to use words wrong in defiance of Everything), and she said Little Brown Jobs, and I said, "Oh, that's like my Winter Black and Whites," (which are Juncos, Nuthatches, and Chickadees). Then later, I had a dream (and I was the star of a Hollywood movie ... not really) and in my dream it was winter, but I was in a strange place like an oasis in the desert (but it was a spring orchard in the snow), where it was warm and there were trees with fine green leaves (like big bonsai trees), and the trees were filled with little birds. Beyond the trees was a corridor (like a long stone block path over and through nothing ... endless darkness ... to where it went, I don't know?) But to leave the place, someone I could not see told me I would need a Chinese Wallet which they explained to me was a wallet filled with all the little song birds. Which made perfect sense in my dream, as things do, that the little birds would go in just like bills of paper.
First about the watch:
This is a vintage (mid 1970ties) Chinese wrist watch Seagull (海鸥) ST5-D (29J automatic movement). It came with original manual and original bracelet, but shown here on a steel mesh bracelet.
Nice silver pie pan dial.
The ST5-D was the first indigenous Chinese automatic movement, made by the Tianjin Watch Factory (天津手表厂).
That pocket dictionary used as a prop is not too good, but it has the character 表 at the right place for the photo.
Now for your Chinese lesson:
The character 表 biǎo has many meanings, more than given in that dictionary, most usage in a technical context is for anything with a dial. Depending what other characters it is combined with one gets the actual meaning.
Examples:
表带 biǎo dài watchband
手表 shǒubiǎo wristwatch
钟表 zhōngbiǎo clock
压力表 yālì biǎo pressure gauge
高度表 gāodù biǎo altimeter

One of the beautifully costumed actresses in a traditional Chinese Opera I attended in Beijing, China. The colours were dazzling.

The Chinese Lantern plant has many names, such as Japanese Lantern and winter cherry. It has a large orange to red papery covering over its fruit. It blooms with white flowers in summer but the red lanterns appear in the fall. It grows wild in many places and is popular as an ornamental. It can last a long time in a vase, but don't touch it -- it crumbles easily.
China town is a neighborhood in Manhattan, New York. From ethnical perspective, it's one of the oldest neighborhoods in New York city.
It's probably not as colorful as anybody would imagine a typical Chinese neighborhood to be. But, it definitely resembles a simple Chinese neighborhood with its shops and foods.
I took this picture from my walk on Manhattan Bridge a few days ago. I loved every bit of that visit.
