I more than kinda like it.  That's an awesome photo and it should be hanging 
on your wall.

I'd almost be tempted to try it in BW.

What Dave said.  I think it's a great, dynamic shot.  Well done.

A really great shot, Charles. Captures so much feeling and sense of 
location.


2011 PDML is already filling up. :-)

Charles,
I see you doing twins over there!
Must be nice to be out of the major cities where they hound you with
merchandise for sale.

You're right.  Our tour guide had nothing to do but follow us twins when we 
were in Mojiang... but when we got back here to Kunming she went into full-on 
sell mode which was a big bummer.
