[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I decided to just go with the young Chinese people against the backdrop of the old. It's just experimental . . . perhaps too realistic. Thanks for all the great comments on the first one. I've taken some direction and tried one more time.

Oops! The first one disappeared...This is hard to compare now! But I think,if my memory is good,that this one is superior,more realistic! Very nice documentary photo!

A really great composition. The determined expression on the faces....Excellent work.

I like this composition at first... but offcourse, idea is excellent, colors, light... it remindes me on some kind of theatre show, maybe opera (if You can catch my thougts).

By the way, thanx for nice critiques about my photos.

Very nice work David! What you are trying to express here is somehow how I felt when I visited China for the second time, "A country so old but with so many young people waiting to be the giants in the world."

Nice post processing here David. I like this background image of the Great Wall, this is a terrific picture on it's own merrit, very good composition. The added portraits are a great addition though, and you did a good job of keeping the direction of light and shadows consistant which is very important when combining different images. Nice work.

David
