Tibet During the Cultural Revolution
The photographs were taken by Woeser (唯色)'s father, a Tibetan People's Liberation Army's officer:-
The Red Guards who damaged the Jokhang Temple. Most of them were the students of Lhasa Secondary School. There was a portrait of Mao Zedong. The banner reads: "Completely destroy the old world! We shall be the master of the new world."
*
The Female Living Buddha and her parents were "criticised and struggled against".
*
This photograph was shown to a Tibetan, who said: "Look, the windows were broken. There's a big hole in the boy's sleeve. He was even holding a script prepared by some others. Did he really understand what he said? The people around him were so confused. It's like they were manipulated. This is Tibet's Cultural Revolution."
*
Buddhist classics were burnt outside the Jokhang Temple.
*
Buddhist statues and ritual objects in the Jokhang Temple were destroyed by the Red Guards.
*
Tibetan women "revolutionised"
*
Apparently they were only primary school students. They were not only brandishing the Quotations from Chairman Mao, but also wearing the red armbands, which suggests that they had joined the Red Guards.

Title: The Kingdom of Bicycles
Photographer: Wang Wenlan
During the peak commute hours, uncountable number of bicycles flowed from the hutongs [alleys in Beijing] into the main streets as they move like a huge river across the bridges. This great wall in motion must be one of the wonders of the world! If you are in the middle of it, you can feel that you are moving in a bloodstream - it is warm, it is noisy, it contains endless potential, as if bicycles have soul, pulse and breath. China is a nation on two wheels.

Four Photojournalists, One Angle
In Central, about 100 people attended a candlelight vigil for Hong Kong-based journalist Ching Cheong last night. It must have been a rather undramatic (at least from the photojournalists' perspective) protest since the big three news agencies and Hong Kong's biggest selling newspaper are all struggling for an unique angle:
AFP
AP
Hong Kong Oriental Daily
Reuters - 1
Reuters - 2
Even an outsider like me can understand the pressure to take me-too photos - what if this agency and that newspaper get some really great shots but I miss it? The golden rule therefore seems to be following the crowd and erring on the safe (and unimaginative) side.
* * *
So far I have only taken my Canon EOS 350D with me to record the December 4 Universal Suffrage March and Hong Kong's Anti-WTO Protest. Although the "rice bowl factor" does not apply to citizen journalists, most amateur photographers seemed quite content with taking the me-too photos, particularly the "people mountain people sea" ones.
But what's the point? 99% of amateurs by definition don't have the comparable equipment, resources and experience. Is it not our only competitive advantage that we have no financial and editorial pressure, so that we can take some risks?

Chinese Media: A Photoshopaholic's Paradise
This is the front page of Zhejiang newspaper Today Morning Express. The caption of the Hangzhou boats photo read: Heavy rain hits Hangzhou; hundreds of boats return.
Perhaps it is rather too intellectually challenging for their readers to visualise the return of so many boats - the considerate editors have done a great service to them:

Tangshan Earthquake Photos
30 years on, photos of Tangshan Earthquake, which killed 240,000 people (if you believe the CCP), are still treated as de facto state secret. Hong Kong Ming Pao newspaper publishes today five rare black and white earthquake pictures taken by Li Yaodong, then a Tangshan-based photo-journalist. The images are reportedly restricted to internal use in mainland China.
Aerial photo: Ruins and tents.
Eight days after the earthquake, the People's Liberation Army (Northeast Region) arrived in the Tangshan area but the city was 3 km away. Military trucks were blocked by the damaged roads. The army rushed to the city with their spades.
Earthquake orphans on a train: the city government gave them new clothes and apples; they gave the photographer a big smile.

A man was recovered alive from the debris "many days" after the quake.
Tiananmen Tank Man
The Simpsons travelled to Beijing and Selma Bouvier, Homer Simpson's sister-in-law, was facing down a tank with a big red star. If one is unable to associate the images with the Tiananmen Massacre, there are two possibilities: either one has been living outside China and has never been exposed to news media since 1989, or one is living in China.
* * *
And thanks to Google China's self-censorship which targets, inter alia, the "Three Ts" (Tiananmen, Taiwan independence and Tibet independence), the "Tiananmen Tank Man" has once again become cartoonist's darling.
* * *
"I think [Jeff Widener's 'Tiananmen Tank Man' photo (below)] has cost China more in public image than any other single image in modern times," Richard Baum, director of the Center for Chinese Studies at the University of California, told the Smithsonian Magazine.
Heaven knows if the Tank Man will someday replace Chairman Mao's giant portrait as the symbol of Tiananmen Square. (Or has he?)

Photos Of Anti-WTO Protests In Hong Kong
After the violent anti-WTO protests on Saturday ...
A Hong Konger's perspective.
The longest day
Hong Kong riot police marched across Gloucester Road after all arrested protesters were sent to Kwun Tong, Kowloon. The police looked tired, relieved (one officer even took out a mini digital camera to take some snapshots!) and proud and they cheered "we never lose" (戰無不勝). Hong Kong people and some photo journalists clapped. (December 18, 2005 at about 3 p.m.; Gloucester Road, Wanchai)
* * *
Which side are Hong Kong people on?
A Korean anti-WTO protester was holding a cardboard with Chinese characters: "Hong Kong government, release our comrades quickly". Some Hong Kong people shook hands with Korean protesters in Victoria Park, others cheered along the procession route. Some 1,000 anti-protesters had been arrested after the "riots" and many of them are Korean-speaking people. (December 18, 2005, Afternoon; Victoria Park)

In your face
The protester wearing a US flag mask from the Philippines came to Hong Kong to join the anti-WTO protests. The Philippines is believed to be one of the relatively pro-America Asian countries. (December 18, 2005, Afternoon; Victoria Park)

Now the poorest people are told to wait another decade - a 2013 date for ending agricultural export subsidies is to be set according to the Hong Kong declaration. (December 18, 2005, Afternoon; Victoria Park)

Looking back
A man was passing a giant banner "WTO kills farmers, Down Down WTO, Korean Peasants League" displayed in Victoria Park. After a week of sensational and spectacular protests, what, if anything, would be left? (December 18, 2005, Afternoon; Victoria Park)

I learned this trick first hand when I visited a company and found a large puddle of water near the front entrance blocking my way. [url=http://cheapnikenz-sales.webs.com/]Cheap Nike Shoes[/url] I could either take off my shoes and wade through the water in my stockings, a get my shoes wet. I opted for the latter.

To my utter surprise, once my shoes were dry, they were super comfortable.
The journey of a professional skateboarder [url=http://upnikeaustralia01.webs.com/]Nike Shoes Australia[/url] would start in the streets, where he would take endless attempts to do new tricks and perform new stunts. These tricks and stunts are to be displayed in tournaments which the different sponsors are carefully keeping an eye on. If a certain company sees a skateboarder with much talent and has a promising career, they would give him free stuff for him to use. This move is also advantageous for the company since the skateboarder will sort of "endorse" their products. When a skateboarder has become a crowd favorite and catches the attention of everyone, then talks are usually made for endorsement deals, and the money will come in.
The growth in the custom shoes and orthopedic shoes industries suggests that people, at least some folks, are wising up about the importance to having comfortable walking conditions to one's happiness.
