Hello,

Alan yet another message which I find inspiring. Yes there are few safety standards, yes they may "work in the dark" but what I see is people taking the risk that they might lift themselves out of poverty, that they may "make it".

None of them is concerned about losing jobs or industries to the Congo and I bet they don't gripe about things not being made in "England" or the "USA".

I really think that my grandchildren may grow up in a world that aspires to the "Chinese Dream" where anyone can think of and seize an opportunity and make themselves anything they wish to be.

Thank you for sharing.

Peter

Fantastic image. The thing that most stands out to me is her shoes. Or, should I say her slippers? In this environment!

Kind words thank you

Alan,
Yet another good factory shot.
I know you intentionally chose the big machine to be the subject. Do you have one where the worker is more dominant?
Charlie

I always love looking at your factory shots Alan. They have so much depth and detail... and your processing brings them out as well. Also the touch of despair in the juxtaposition between the menacing presence of these machines contrasted with the gloomy workers.

Thanks Charlie and Eric

Charlie I could do a close up of the worker. However I don't have a different shot

another moving image of the life in China to me this image represents a sense of solitary, but yet what one must do to survive. Great processing here

Well done again Alan. I have one nit. Where are the "teeming masses"? You show lots of shots where the feeling is emptiness. I think that might be on purpose.
