These shots were taken in May Fourth Park in Qingdao, China.

We had just returned from the International Kite Festival in Weifang, where some incredible kites were being flown. Pictures of some of the kites are at www.pbase.com/caljimw/kitefestival (http://www.pbase.com/caljimw/kitefestival).

Enjoy!

Nice pictures!

Why do they call it May 4th Park...is that independence day there?

A student demonstration resulted in sufficient national will to convince Japanese invaders to return to their homeland (around 1919, I think).
Thanks for the comments.
