Hey Everyone, been a while for me on here, but seen this thread and wanted to share. My daughter and I just did this other week. Kinda went for a theme of "grass is always greener on the other side of the fence till ya get there and now you just want to get back to where you were". It's a long haul back....
What's going on in this shot? I just have to know the story...
It's part of the traditional funeral / grieving process in China. The gentleman is burning the clothes of the deceased. He will likely be the eldest son. It's a somber experience.

Thank you. I can imagine it's bittersweet. Powerful shot.
