see my friends, a photo from Jiangxi, Centre

Photographer's Note

Quality time...

---

Nanchang is the capital of Jiangxi Province in southeastern China. Roughly 5 million live there.

Because of its strategic location connecting the prosperous East and South China, it has become a major railway hub in Southern China in recent decades.

In Chinese history, the events of the Nanchang Uprising lead to the foundation of the People's Liberation Army, so the communist regime has named the city "the City of Heroes".

This picture shows four friends playing a game of cards in one of the parks in the city center. Chinese people work hard, but they always manage to find time to spend with friends. That is important.

Hello Benny,
It's Summer in the city and time to See my friends. It's a nice shot from what doesn't look like a Dead end street.
Now I have exhausted my stock of useful Kinks tunes for this photo. ;-)
I am not entirely fond of the dark vignette, otherwise it's a photo entirely to my taste. I just note once again that people look a lot less "exotic" than they did in 1986.
Best wishes,
Gert
Oh yes, maybe each one of these is a Dedicated follower of fashion!

Bonjour Benny,

J'aime beaucoup cette bordure plus foncée faite en post production qui a l'avantage de mieux cerner le sujet. Mettons que la table et les chaises sont plutôt faites pour des enfants.

Bon dimanche

Serge

Dear Benny,

Very nice, candid everday life scene. They seem to have a really good time with only a few things around them.

Best Wishes,
Gy.

Hallo Benny,
Dus niet mahjong maar een kaartspel.
Je koos een goede plaats om de vier spelers mooi in beeld te krijgen.
Het mooie van in warme streken reizen, is dat de lokale bevolking elkaar op publieke plaatsen opzoekt.
En dan weten dat de ouders van deze mensen nog lang in een maopakje gekleed waren.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hi Benny

They have a hand full of cards, they relax on some small stools we used to have 50 years ago!
Cheers

Hi Benny
Seems like they enjoying it too much, i think they dont mind if you wish to shoot as many times as you like. Great and natural street life and activity with a lovely colour selection and atmosphere. An excellent people watching shot, and that's what life is all about - a real social interaction in the open air. A lively street candid, Congrats
Best regards
