It's good for your mental and physical health to have some hip hop dancing during the hard working day. (Taken in Beijing 8 hours ago.)

Great fun shot sir ... I am really liking the look of China from the various images being posted, including BY's.
I had visiting the teracotta soldiers from HK on my 'must do' list, but now maybe I need to think about a bigger trip!! Just need to get the time and cash ...

Thanks Dave, kinda guessed you like this type of pic. ;)
China is a vast country, and if you just get to see the places like Bu is showing for us, it's worth of it. Keep on saving, that trip will pay back!

Olli, nice picture. Street photography can be fun. Lots of smiles. Looks like she gave ticket to a car behind her. Car was yours? Maybe you not so smile after!
I think only expensive part of trip to China is a plane ticket. Stay away from a big city like Beijing and HK and Shanghai, you can live got a week on very little money. Famous world dignitary stay in the hotel in my little city. Big clean room cost 100 yuan every night. It is much money in Chinese but if you convert from western money it is cheap.

"Yes....I just gave out another citation! Yeeessssss" and then does the ticket dance!
Looks like she enjoys her job :cool:
EDIT: Those look awfully like gas sucking USA autos/

Different to our traffic wardens that usually look miserable (Not all of them of course), but that maybe down to the grief they get from motorists.
But this shot shows how happy one can be. Maybe she is going to be promoted with all the tickets she has given out.
looks like you are having a great time in the East Olli. Wonderful shot.

A great moment in time. And I agree with the above, forget HK and spend your time in China for more interesting shooting opportunities.

If she only knew that her photo is representing the whole of China.

Bu, you could be a great guide for Dave (condyk) if he decides to visit China in the near future.
Those look awfully like gas sucking USA autosThe local Jeep copies are very popular here, also other SVU look-alikes. (Have to take a picture of one of those.)

Hey! you came through! Made my day. :) I really needed a smile.
Perhaps next time you can ask her her secret and then share it with me.
Glad to see you were able to post, but you know, those on your HD will still work for a post in a pinch. ;)

I'll be looking forward to an affirmative decision and subsequent posting then. ;)
