Day Forty One, March 4, 2011

film man and his cat

I walked and walked and walked today. I love walking the streets of Shanghai on sunny winter days taking in the alleys, the laundry hanging in the street, the meat drying in the winter sun next to people’s undergarments, the locals sunning on the curb on their lounge chairs, the board games, the millions of bicycles, the street food stalls, the workers… all of it.

Today I took so many shots and saw so many smiling faces and then I saw the odd dramatic face like that of film man and his cat who stared me down but not before the moment was captured.

  1. Your words are almost as vivid as your photos. You describe a scene foreign to me. I have never seen meat drying in the sun, much less next to undergarments. Yet as I type this my cat is next to me perched on my printer – my scene looks a lot like film man’s.

    1. Thank you so much! I can picture your cat on the printer too 🙂
