China

The peak of life

People walking on the street

The narrow alleys

Pitted with tiny shops

Chinese calligraphy

A whiff of sweet & sour

The chinese lanterns.

Old man in the park

moving slowly

Shadow boxing in the Tai Chi form

Fans move gracefully

in Kung Fu combat

Ah

The essence of life.

Looking back I can remember being absolutely fascinated with Chinese culture.

I almost had an opportunity to go to Hong Kong to study Choy Lay Fut Kung Fu. I don’t think my parents would ever have allowed it if it came to fruition.
