Guangzhou (Canton) - Warning Some Images Disturbing

These photos are from the city of Guangzhou (formerly known as Canton) in Southern China. Please note that some people may find the images from the market area disturbing. However, this is part of China and I feel that it is important to show people what life in China is like. These photos were taken with slide film and then scanned, so the quality is less than perfect. Please let me know what yo think about these photos.

Pictures from 2005? ??? Really? It's amazing, 5 years later Chinsese seem to eat more dog than ever before.

Hello former Guest (if you are still alive and in Guangzhou? Just make your way downtown old Guangzhou. It shouldn't take you much time to discover the places and they'd hardly changed there! ;-)

Not bad photos for a beginner ;-) Guess you take much better shots by now. Voila
