Close Encounters in China - photography

Photographs of the smiling people in Dalian, China. An unforgettable experience, that left me with an incredible emotional impact.

This woman posed for me in a public restroom, as if we were both waiting for this photo to happen.

One of my very few "stolen" photos of people. The girl, didn't see me take the photo.

A typical position to relax, this time, with an apple.

The woman at first didn't want to be photographed, but I motioned that I wanted her also inthe photo.

Women, protecting themselves from the sun, skin should be as fair as possible.

At Dalian's Beer Festival, so much fun!

Mother and daughter, happy to pose for the photograph.

The woman had left the scene of this photo, but I mentioned for her to please return, since she matched the paintings so beautifully.

A thrilling day, that spent at the "modern" art exhibition in Dalian.

The boy on the left makes the peace sign.

People were always willing to be photographed, like these two men who took a pause for me.
