That modern building shot is quite good. It's difficult to make a glass and steel building interesting.

Three very nice shots. I think I like the top one best but the others are good as well.

Love the close up of the Great Wall stones.
And that is quite the reflection shot, too!

You manage to capture quite a number of China's moods--and the incredible span of time the Chinese have been creating technological feats. Great stuff.

Evelyn, I like all three photos; the second of the sky reflected in the building is my favorite - I like the angle you got on it. The third is oh, so Beijing.

What a contrast between the smooth blue of the sky against the very rough stone of the wall.

You managed to make the glass-and-steel building of the "stacked ice cube tray school of architecture" look interesting.
