Day 63 - Wudaokou

Another quick work day here in China. During trampoline, I had a great time working with the kids and really getting them to focus more on their takeoffs. It’s always a great feeling when you see an idea click in someones mind. When they’re able to make that connection, you see how much better they perform, and the confidence shows.

By the time this evening rolled around though, I realized I hadn’t taken any photos yet. Seeing that I had just ran out of breakfast supplies, I decided to take the subway down to the neighborhood of Wudaokou for some photos & grocery shopping. One of the few places with an international foods market that takes credit card, and plenty of selection to stock up on the necessities. Wudaokou is a bustling area that is close to many of the Universities. Tons of life happening here with store fronts lighting up the street. With so many people & cars passing by, I decided to try more long exposures. One of the things that I find awesome about long exposures is how it can make a street corner look so empty. In reality a few hundred people just passed by, but in the photo you can only see a handful.
