I spotted this round window and incredible yellow wall at Tianning Temple in Changzhou, China, and waited for someone to walk by. No one did. I waited longer. Still no one. There were plenty of other things in the area to shoot so I walked on but kept my eye on the round window. Finally, I noticed a monk headed in the right direction and I literally ran back to my spot with just enough time to fire off this one shot. It’s not perfect, but I’ll take it given the circumstances.

I’ve neglected to mention that our old house sold. In fact, it was one month and three days from our first meeting with the realtor to closing and receiving the check. I think that’s pretty amazing. Not only is our workload now reduced by only having to care for one property in one town, but we’re also finally able to do some much needed upgrading of our business equipment. Some new hard drives arrived today and I also completed the adoption of my brother’s Nikon D300 that accompanied me to China last month (In fact, I shot this photo with it). More is arriving tomorrow. Stay tuned.
