Photographer's Note
This is the last one of the puppet show.
It looks no any conacting with the puppet show,
but it did.
the small house is the ancestral altar of
the villagers that faced the stage.
Before the performance began, villagers
knelt down before the altar and prayed for blessings.
and the kids would sit on the ground all the time
for waiting for the performance.
I always talk to myself "be patience!"
after this one and this one... it will be OK!
I wish i could do some modern series, i wish...
but when i live in city i miss rurality,
when i live in raral area i will long for to urban...
That we are human being.

One of your very best compositions, Mingfang. All the players fall into place here, beautifully anchored by the pensive little boy in the bottom left corner pocket..;o)
This is excellent, it is as real as it gets, but with artistry.
One could complain abut the partly seen man n the right, but this is a minor niggle, honestly, it is dwarfed by the obvious merit of the ensemble.
How do I say BRAVO in Mandarin?

我常常觉得像你一样。
我去乡村,我就开始想城市。
我在城市,就想乡村。
我现在想乡村的。哈哈哈
这照片里,人们都有自然的表情。
特别那小孩子,根本不里你的照相机,
他注意地看什么呢?
我想这篇联系很有意思。
今天结束了,太遗憾了!

Lovely moment Mingfang, the look of the man and especially of meditative expression of the kid and his side position are just wonderful. They where too bored even to care about you having this shot :-)
Congratulations, a great one!

Hello Mingfang. a very good conclusion to your puppet series. The composition is very good and the colors are wonderful. I like the expressions of the young boy and the old man. Your note is wonderful, it is always the case when we are far from something we grew tired of... like living in a rural area... or an urban area... in english, there is a saying, "the grass is always greener on the other side."
Take care

This is a wonderful picture, with so much to tell, with such a good composition, dear Mingfang, again... I really admire the way you position this little boy in the lower left, and how you capture his unique expression. A very beautiful shot!
