Urban Impression

Billy · 11-25-2004, 07:54 AM

I just got one digital camera. I like take some photos to record the city and life here. It is a big pity that I just had a operation in hospital today. After I recover well, I will resume to take and post here.
I don't know where I should start to take. I think my most time is in my office and cellar, so I shot them. My offcie PC is HP. Thank XOXO for helping me edit the photos.
If you want to see some special photos, please let me know. I will try to take.

Billy, I hope you recover well from your operation.

I would like you to take pictures of places that you like, or things that you find interesting or beautiful ... just scenes of things that you may see everyday, but want to share with others.

Clodfobble · 11-25-2004, 11:07 AM

I would like to see the neighborhood you live in.

BrianR · 11-25-2004, 01:55 PM

I want to see the inside of your closet

Women! Show us the women! :p

Oh, and I guess I'm curious about your neighborhood too.

Cinema movie. I sometimes go to the cinema to see good movies. There are few good Chinese movies now. The tickets are expensive. Most people buy DVD to watch moives in home. So less and less people go to the cinemas.
There are the popular USA moives. But the casting drops behinds the USA. In the following pix, the first one is I, Robot. I will see it this week. The second pic is Ladder 49, The Bourne Supremacy and I, Robot. I watched the former two.

I live in this building. It was changed into apartments by company dorms. So the room size is very small. Most Chinese don't use dryers to heat up clothes. They put the clothes in the balconies. The windows look like ugly.

xoxoxoBruce · 11-28-2004, 09:24 AM

Billy, you're company bought that apartment building and turned it into a dormitory for employees?

Kitsune · 11-28-2004, 03:46 PM

Why the bars on the windows?

BrianR · 11-28-2004, 07:22 PM

I guess this means I, Robot and Ladder 49 will be out on DVD soon then? <ducks and runs>

Billy · 11-28-2004, 08:17 PM

The piratical DVD will be out after the USA new movies come into boxes. So it easy to get the DVDs. One piratical DVD is about 8RMB(nearly 1$, 1$=8.3RMB). One movie ticket is about 60RMB(7$).
China want to oppose and limit the USA movies becaue we think the USA culture would erode our culture. It is a big pity that we cannot make out lots of good movies, such as Hero, to attract the fans.

The bars in windows are made for protecting the things in window. The clothes would fly away if the wind come. Of course, the thief cannot one in from windows.

Ago the company was a sate company. The buliding was built for the employees to live. The apartments were distributed to the old employees after the French Thomson joined. I rent one apartment to live in now.

I don't know the name of trees. I pass the trees every day.

Is it me or does Will Smith look a bit different in that billboard for I Robot?

...I assume that guy *is* Will Smith and not another actor in the movie. I haven't actually seen it.

We think the thin arc eyebrow is the best for the women. In Canton the old women used one thread to make up eyebrow into arc for other women. Now some girls still want to to make up the eyebrow.
