This week on the Lens-Artist Challenge, we were challenged to “find something red”, which reminded me that it was Chinese New Year this past Saturday and just about everyone I know knows the color red is seen just about everywhere during Chinese New Year – red lantern, lights, red envelopes… Therefore, I think it’s fitting…

One way for a landscape photographer to catch people unaware: aim the camera higher than the height the people are standing or you can do what I do – go to a crowded place (like the City of Phoenix in China) and I can guarantee you can catch someone unaware. Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge
And of course, the trip of the year has to be my second trip to China.
To be honest, I did not think I can come up with pictures for this topic but then, I started looking into my archive and saw these pictures from my trip to Macau earlier this year where I visited a very fancy hotel with lots priceless statues and valuables. Immediately thought of this photo challenge.…
Lift can mean a lot of things from a strong man lifting 100 pounds over his head to a simple car ride. For me, the first thing that popped into my head when I saw this topic was the incredibly long cable car ride up Tianmen Mountain and I had the opportunity to be on…
Tuesday Photo Challenge
When I visited China in 2017, I got to enjoy the festivities of Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year.
There are many places in China that can easily be dated over 100 years old, some even a few hundreds.

How can I not conclude this year’s A-Z challenge without a post about my hometown?
As I mentioned in my previous post, to get to Tianmen Mountain requires a 20 to 30-minute cable car ride.
One of the most awesome places I’ve ever been to in China has to be Tianmen Mountain in Hunan Province.
My mom used to go on YouTube and watch videos that introduced the lifestyle of Hong Kong.
The first time when my aunt told me she was going to get water, she said, “let me show you my definition of country.”
My grandmother grew up in this quaint village about an hour drive from my hometown of Zhongshan.
During my four-month stay in China in 2017, I, along with my aunt and her friend, joined a four-day tour to visit the region of Zhangjiajie in Hunan Province.
A few days ago, I was reminded by Facebook that about a year ago, I was in this place – China’s Grand Canyon in Hunan Province.
When I saw the topic for this week’s Black and White challenge, this image immediately sprang to my mind.
This was taken a year ago in 南朗 (Nan Lang), a small city outside of my hometown of Zhongshan.
I realized something yesterday! A year ago, I was in China, breathing in that warm humid semi-polluted spring air.
It’s been a while since I did a macro photo on Photo of the Day and I don’t know why.
