Snip.Snip.Trimming away.Until what is left,but a manicured vision.Peering past ruffled robes.With an inquisitive sympathy fashioned beneath the frantic hands of the carver.As the pieces fall away from the draped statue.Like chips flaking away as nibbled flecks from yesterday's corroded frame of mind.

I am going to look up your reference on the Internet and drop you a line. Always interested in such things that trigger the cultural reference. For me, I wanted to capture something 1930’s here, the great depression, and all in 2005, in one of the world’s fastest growing economies. As you often point out, the balance between environment and dignity. I struggled for a title, and may yet change it (I used this title already for another more humorous image). Filip, will contact you about a stroll!

what a cpture here, Kal. I love the only one eye, as noted ny Filip as well.
A portrai of "arte di arrangiarsi" in chinese salsa. Very well done.

P.S. arte di arrangiarsi is the famous italian style in arraging things and resolving difficulties...

Only in China can a simple haircut seem like a surreal moment (or one lost in time...and this image truly looks like it was made in another era). Lovely compo and I like the fact how I can only see one eye on the "customer's" face...hair clippings on the floor are a great addition as well (as is the bicycle). This is just amazing. Will have to hit Suzhou Creek for a photo outing as well.
