I was getting ready for shooting St.Nicholas party. Loaded with NPZ 800 and Trix 400 I was looking forward to the event. Then I was 'volunteered' to be the devil as the current resident evil could not make it this year. So here is a picture my wife snapped. I'm the one in the black.<div>00ALSO-20780984.jpg.272aa55d818531543188cd27735f7e88.jpg</div>

Thanx for the comments Brad, Malcolm

<p>

As of most of my shots of recent this is China; specifically Beijing. The building entrance

to the left of the photo is actually my apartment.

<p>

Directly across the road from where I live there 'was' a large open market selling fruit &

veg, clothes, shoes, etc, etc..

<p>

In Novemeber this year they shut it down to make way for more high-rise apartments.

Nothing unusual but this is some 15 km from the city centre and contained buildings

200+ years old. Unfortunately, this complete disregard for the historical value of almost

"anything" is part of the modern evolving China of today.

<p>

I'm actually in the process of moving to Bangkok and wasnt planning on any more

photography in Beijing at the moment but seeing all evidence of this market vanish in

front of me forced me to get the camera out. I couldnt persuade anybody to let me in the

gates so all shots where either outside or through the fence...
