(Fun & Recreation Photos) group’s “Up Close Fun” Challenge and Featured in the Group February 16, 2009. / Featured in Domestic Art – Home is Where The Art Is September 21, 2008. Image taken with the Nikon D40x, using the 18-135mm lens. Used the tripod, shutter speed 6, aperture f/22, exposure -.67, iso 800. No flash. Of everything I’ve done, this is by far my favorite image (well, actually, there IZ one other … ). This was created for a “challenge” at another photo site … and came in second place out of … well, a bunch … but that’s not why it’s my favorite. This was done not long after I got my Nikon D40x … which I realize isn’t a wildly sophisticated camera, but which was a giant leap forward to me after my little Olympus C-5000 zoom. There were many new features on the Nikon that I was hopelessly confused about, but I was very fortunate to have a dear friend, AndreiSky, who kindly helped me understand the mysteries of the aperture. The set up for this image was an adventure in flashlights, darkness, kitchen stools, sofa pillows and the dreaded tripod. Not to mention my beautiful antique mahjong set … for which I finally found a use since I have no idea how to play mahjong!! So that’s it!! My masterpiece!! Hope you like it!!!

Around Houhai (a lake) in Beijing there are always people hanging out, playing majong, doing taichi or practicing musical instruments. At night it becomes a bit nightlife area and you can sit on the couches outside and look across the lake and see the lights of bars on the other side. Not too far away is a great area of hutongs (small alleyways between traditional courtyard houses). Beautiful area.
In the midst of a busy street market these folks were playing mahjong with a very interested and active bystander adding his views of the moves….loudly.
