I like the mood, but I wish you were closer to the figures.

That's the wife of the local miltary commander. Photographing her is illegal.




Just kidding! Thanks a lot. I'll try to get closer in the future but in China they tend to notice the tall white guy with the huge camera and stop what they are doing.

Great atmosphere!

I love the rain being in focus; it gives a distinct impression of a constant soaking rain, rather than a deluge.

I love the light, but I wish the people were in better focus.

Nice job, thanks for sharing!

I thought I recognised her!



As far as getting noticed, I manage to get in close pretty often despite being a tall (~6ft) white woman with a big camera. If the shot's worth it and they've already noticed me, I'll normally grab a seat or just hang around until they go into ignore the crazy foreigner-mode.

I do really like the shot itself, seeing some closer ups would be really cool I think. I've always shied away from night Street shots, but this gives me some inspiration!
