Back in 1991 in China, this appeared to me to be the Chinese F150 – the 1 manpower, bicycle pickup.
I found it fascinating to peek inside this world. In this photo of an artisan at work, a lady fixes a clay leaf and stalk to a clay vase.
I took this photo of five men hanging out in Suzhou by the same lake as yesterday’s angling photo but it’s not the same pier or building but a similar one a short walk away.
After a couple of hours, our boring diesel train pulled in to Suzhou and we were taken by bus to a hotel by a lake. Taking a stroll that afternoon I took this shot of some locals fishing from a pier built out into the lake.
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.
