My Shanghai Book - 12-21-2006, 09:31 AM


I decided that for Christmas I would get myself a book with photos from my visits to the Shanghai area. It is scheduled for delivery today and I can't wait to get my hands on it!

Unlike Fran's beautiful book with it's classical and relaxed layout, I wanted a layout that conveyed the beautiful clutter, chaos, and frantic pace that is Shanghai - even in the smaller towns outside the city.

So, here you go...

Thanks everyone.

I'll be heading back out there in January - along with Taipei, Seoul, and Hong Kong. Not sure if I'll have any time for photos but I will take my gear with me.

The contrast between the old and new, the quiet/serene and chaos is always fascinating to me.
