Shooting in Beijing was great!


My whirlwind trip to Asia got me to Beijing. I hired a guide and driver to take me around Beijing and managed to see The Great Wall (Badaling), The Summer Palace and The Forbidden City. I managed to get the guide to get me out early and was the first person to arrive at one of the most popular sections of the wall. I had about 30 minutes to shoot before other folks started to arrive! This is DEFINITELY the way to enjoy it. I captured this image just as I was getting ready to go in. The camera happened to be setup and ready to go or I wouldn't have gotten this. More images to post later.

Now off to shoot fall colors in Bishop and the Eastern Sierra.
