nice! We (my lion dancing crew; not the above) will be out for a final Chinatown blessing celebration throughout the entire Chinatown; feel free to look for us; as well as the rest of the POTN crew!

Look for "Luen Hing Association"; we will be doing opening, closing cereomonies, as well as add a alot of fun and color [;)] into the air!

Carson, that lion really pops out! Focus vignetting really leads your eye to the main subject. I wish we had met during the parade, there were a bunch of PTN'rs covering that event.

BMW, what color is your dragon? I bet we have pictures. When and what time is your next event?

[hok_97]

Thanks guys.

BMW: I'll be sure to look out for your crew.

I've never seen a green dragon. ... Lots of red dragons, but never green. ... Very interesting!!

There will be several heads of different colors; and yes I did see pics here on POTN of our group (See below) - which came out good by the ways ;)

Celebrations will be in Chinatown, NYC tomorrow (02/17) - Once again, the name of our group is "Luen Hing Association"; we will be in yellow sweaters that state "LUEN HING" with a picture of a lion head on the back.

POTN.. please do come out support us! We always play for the crowd, especially for the cams! We've been practicing some new high-flying tricks as well.. so if you guys can find us; please snap away! If the urge to network is there, I'm the gentleman in glasses with plaid converses (See last pic; second to left) - Hope to see and meet you; otherwise have fun tomorrow!

Similar to the one in the first photo? I'll look around if I see you guys tomorrow.

Actually I think I do recall seeing a bunch of lion dancers with yellow shirts last week at the parade. I don't remember the name though.

BMW, I do have photos of your group. Give me some time to dig them up. I am bye the way in Nicksan's photo, the guy with the red and black jacket on the right. Kinda blurred though. I am in the area everyday since my son goes to Yung Wing school, though they don't have classes next week because of the mid-winter recess. What time and where are you performing, I may have time to pass by.

I don't have a camera anymore.. :(
Well at least not yet.. I'll wave to you guys if I do see any of you. But I thought I can get close since it is going to be crowded again. Will you be taking pictures of your crew?

[BMWEOS_techniks]

... in Nicksan's photo, the guy with the red and black jacket on the right...Yung Wing school ..

i can somewhat make it out; the hair , respectively of course; may assist me. I know Yung Wing.. the infamous onetwentyfour, alot of my neighborhood friends attended that.

Our session by the ways and to POTN, is gathering close to 10AM; and we will begin to progress around Chinatown bowing and blessing all the stores in the neighborhood. The only guarantee I can give; as to locating us is to look for our banner and our yellow sweaters w/ lion head logo. I am not sure if we will be moved to a different location for our opening.

Best of luck; hope to meet you guys tomorrow.

..Will you be taking pictures of your crew?

No unfortunately.. I'm depending on you guys! I attempted to do the dance and carry the cam last year.. and it's impossible. All the moving and swinging.. I can't subject my cam to that!

HOK97; my apologies for just taking over your thread!

Pic 2 is great; love the perspective and symbolicness of same.

I'd like to share your pics with my group if you don't mind. Do you want to watermark them? Let me know.

BTW; pic 4 (shot of lion looking into cam); directly to the right of same in the bg in glasses is me. If you want to say hi, or let me have the group put on a mini performance for you; let me know! Once again, yellow sweater; plaid designed sneakers. Have fun today!

HOK; do you have any more pics from the parade you'd like to share with us?

[BottomBracket]

BMW, last Sunday my family went to church on Broome St and we had lunch on Grand. I was on the lookout for your group but unfortunately didn't see you guys. We should have exchanged digits. Do you still have performances, I mean throughout the year? I wish I had known about your group much earlier, I am thinking it would be cool to make a photo documentary. Anyway, by all means you can share the photos with your group. If you need hi res photos just pm me.
