“Didn't fancy walking then?” is what I imagine the policeman standing on the left is saying to the policeman on the bike. In the background a squad is marching from point A to point B for (most likely) no particular reason while the Chairman looks on.
I took this in Tienanmen Square in 1991 on the same day as yesterday's photo. Even back in 1991 there was a fair deal of pollution in Beijing and few of my photos there have clear skies. This day appears to have been a mix of overcast with a light smog.
I didn't really like what I was getting in the way of color from my slide scanner so I flipped the image to black and white and applied a texture in onOne Perfect Photo Suite 7.5, Perfect Effects model.
