I saw this wonderful piece of machinery reversing down the track and I thought it was getting hitched to the locomotive-less carriages on the platform in front of us.
I took this photo of an Nanjing Intersection from my hotel room in the city back in 1991. I’d be very surprised if the hotel is still there, let alone the collection of trader stalls under the tarps.
The legend, ‘The most charming ancient capital – Xian’ is written in seven languages on this poster, with English coming in last place.
I would imagine that there’s a considerable need for bicycle repair men in China. Maybe these days there are more cars on the road, a lot more than in 1991 when I took this photo, bicycles are still in high demand.
I’ve ridden numerous motorcycles over the years but I’ve never ridden a sidecar motorcycle, either as the driver of the motorcycle or as the passenger in the sidecar.
‘Balancing Act’ is another photo taken on the streets of Xi’an, China, not far from the beer distributor.
