    Having visited China (PRC) many times John I thought I was “over” this fanatic … yet your composition, the light behind his head and the shiny surface somehow does make him seem like a kindly fat peasant. I saw his waxen dead body in the early 70’s (I think it was) and thought “Thank goodness your dead”

    Wonderful capture, he has a great green gleam. Saw your Shanghai video, absolutely stunning, saw so much in that almost 8 minutes, beautiful film, love the music you chose also. Is that your art on the benches in that one scene? Awesome John

    The art on the benches was mine, my bordello series in people square, put them out and people were coming up and looking at them then when thy’d get to the bondage images of bordello work they’d scurry away! The music in film is mine also, so yet another thank you to you dear. xx
