Shanghai Tourist Tunnel

I have been seeing a lot of photos from Shanghai popping up on Google+ lately...it reminded me of this shot from the tourist's tunnel that takes you from Pudong under the river to the Bund....kind of expensive, but it beats taking a cab all the way around and over the bridge...this is hand-held as no tripods were allowed in the tunnel...

Nanjing Walking Street

On Wednesday, I posted a night photo of the Nanjing Walking Street in Shanghai...this is the same place during the day. Unfortunately, the skies were really hazy during the day, so it was better taking photos at night where you don't see that boring white sky...but, a cool shot never the less...

Scroll down to two photos below, and you can compare the two photos...much better at night, right?

Have a great weekend!!

Shanghai Night Life

There is this really nice walking street in Shanghai where you can stroll, people watch, shop, eat and drink. It certainly doesn't feel like any other city in China....feels more like Europe.

Monitoring The Street

Not really sure what these guys were doing. One was sitting on a chair in the middle of the street, and the other guy was...well, I don't know...but looked serious with his hands on his hip...

Shanghai at Night

Believe it or not, this is NOT an HDR image...these are the actual colors on this street...looks fake doesn't it? I had my head turned up almost the entire time I was walking around...just love all the lights on the buildings in this city...

Have a great weekend!! See you on Monday!!

The Shanghai Tourist Tunnel

This little tunnel was cool. It is a passage under the river from the Puxi side of Shanghai to the Pudong side of the Bund. You get in these little cubicles that run on their own through the tunnel with a fantastic light show. If you go there, bring your camera, and purchase a round trip ticket. I took these hand-held. Be sure to start your photo when there is a lot of light or your camera will take a super long exposure, but you can get some very cool effects with all the lights...

Fashion?

I was thinking of doing a tight crop of just the guy sitting under the woman's legs, but the two guys in the same photo had more of an interesting story to tell...don't ya think?

The Shanghai Bund

The trip to Shanghai was great...wish I had more time to wander around this city. The weather and light were terrible, but I still ended up with a couple of nice photos. I went to this area (called The Bund) four nights in a row, and it wasn't till the last night, I was finally able to get a photo...the skies were so hazy, you could barely see any of the buildings...it was cloudy on this night, but at least it was clear. Just so you know, if you visit Shanghai, be sure to get your night shots before 11:00pm...at 11:00, all the lights go off...
