Beautiful, well done gallery!

To Miao Ren - thank you for your thoughtful comments. I'm wondering about the Tibetan people..do they wish for complete integration?
Miao Ren 02-Sep-2005 10:28
I think you are making a political statement by putting your "Tibet" section away from China. I suppose this would be your one woman effort to promote segregation within the Chinese mainland. Can I put that down as yet more American arrogance? Personally I think Tibet's future lies within China, not in its being a separate entity no longer viable in our modern integrated world. The sooner Tibetans integrate, the sooner it would be for them to benefit from being a part of the Chinese mainstream. Tibetans are a minority in China. So am I, being a person of the Miao nationality. Not being physically differnt from the mainstream Han, complete integration is possible. Unlike the black and hispanic minorites in the US. Regards.

Tibet is a wonderful place to visit. I was amazed by the blue sky and the colorful cloud there in Tibet from my friends photos and from the talks with them. I wonder whether you have the same impressions. The culture things of Tibet is very unique and of course "very much" Chinese way. I wonder how ...x think of chinese look like and how many places and cultures he/she knows. I think it would be better for the gallery if you post more photos on the natural scenery and the cultural buildings. The special place and the unique culture make it Tibet of China.

Beautiful images as in all your galleries. You're so lucky to have visited Tibet. I'm planning a trip to the Kailas region in the next few years. Best regards.

Thank you for the wonderful images from Tibet
Guest 01-Nov-2003 09:13
Tears coming out of my eyes when I saw the smiles on people's faces. Thank You.
They are wonderful. I agree that Tibet has its own unique culture - simply look at the way they dress and they do look different than Chinese people.

You have many amazing portrait shots here. A real treat for the eyes! Excellent work, thanks for all the images of this incredible land.
Guest 15-Jun-2003 11:20
Another great gallery. Certainly, I do respect your choice of putting Tibet under separate category as culturally it is very different from China. Hopefully, I will have the chance to see it for myself, one day. You have a real talent to sense and capture people's faces... Thanks for sharing... Rich

Great gallery,
ever since I've seen Tibetan refugees in Namche Bazaar - Nepal, I've had an interest in Tibet and Tibettans but I haven't made it over there yet. Your gallery gives a great preview though.
Since you obviously like people I would like to invite you to a few of my galleries:http://www.pbase.com/dannyc/people ,http://www.pbase.com/dannyc/life ,http://www.pbase.com/dannyc/peoplec
I would hope you'ld like them as much as I liked yours.

bluesky, thank you for your comments. I didn't put this gallery under "China" because Tibet has it's own special culture and deserves a gallery of it's own.
bluesky 16-Feb-2003 20:54
I like your photos, but I suggest that you
put this gallery under the folder of "China".

Your portraits are all-telling

You've certainly captured the spirit of Tibet --- this is a spectacular gallery, Wendy!

Me again! Just came back from Tibet (through you gallery).
Beautiful shots and great commentary.
You missed your calling if I may say so.
Yuo should have been a photo journalist. It's still not yoo late.

Will study each image individually and comment accordingly.
