In July of 1981, I and a small group of friends traveled to China for two weeks. This was shorty after travelers from the US were allowed. I brought with me my Mamiya/Sekor 1000DTL, several lenses and 40 rolls of Kodachrome 25. A couple of years ago I scanned close to 500 slides using a Microtek scanner and VueScan software. Here are a few of these. One town we visited probably had never seen a blond haired blue eyed person before. That is what I tried to capture in the shot of the men staring at me. The last shot shows me 43 years ago.
