Chengdu reflections:
As I sat and watched an acrobatics performance in
the streets of
Chengdu, capital of Sichuan province, I noted a
lone figure staring
back at me as the rest of the crowd watched the
amazing spectacle
before them. This elderly man seemed simply to be
curious about the
strange foreigner sitting in his hometown. As I
brought the camera up,
he continued to stare and didn't budge as I took a
few snaps. His
stare is one of my personal favourite images from
my travels in China
- a look of unembarrassed curiosity.
