One day I had a con-call in the hotel room in the early morning, the tree leaves were moved by the wind and made the amusing and relaxing "shie-shie" sound, which made my con-call becoming a cheerful meeting... nice!
Ningbo was one of China's oldest cities, with a history dating back to 4800 BC the Hemudu culture. Once known as Mingzhou (明州), Ningbo was known as a trade city on the silk road at least two thousand years ago, and then as a major port, along with Yangzhou and Guangzhou in the Tang Dynasty; thereafter, the major ports for foreign trade in the Song Dynasty. The city of Ningbo is recalled for a long time under the name of Liampó, in the Peregrination (Peregrinação) of Fernão Mendes Pinto, novel autobiographic Portuguese of the XVIth century. It is in this place it seems that was installed the first Portuguese salable community of the seas of China, before Macao. There are celebrated the feats of the pirate António of Faria..Ningbo was one of the five Chinese treaty ports opened by the Treaty of Nanjing (signed in 1842) at the end of the First Opium War between Britain and China. During the war, British forces took possession of the walled city of Ningbo briefly after storming the fortified town of Zhenhai at the mouth of the Yong River on October 10, 1841. In 1864, the forces of the Taiping Rebellion held the town for six months. In March 1885, during the Sino-French War, Admiral Courbet's naval squadron blockaded several Chinese warships in Zhenhai Bay and exchanged fire with the shore defences.
Ningbo was once famed for traditional Chinese furniture production.

After a long night flight from Bangkok, we were approaching Tokyo Narita, and the local time was approx. 6 am. As you can see in the image, the green field in Narita area was covered with morning fog, which is nice to me. ANA B777-200ER was going to be on the ground shortly.
The sun is low and way south casting long lazy shadows when it breeches the clouds. Freezing temperatures.
Luckily the rear emergency hatch was open, so I could get an unimpeded view of the wing and landing gear of this impressive aircraft. Even my 17-mm lens was stretched to the limit.
