My first impression of a village is usually formed by my interactions with local children. They are invariably the first ones that come forward to engage with and shyly giggle at "the strange visitor". And I invariably take their picture. The following shots were taken in the village of Wudong (see Nice Backyard, Miao Still Life, and Carpenters). [NOTE: The last little guy wasn't so sure about the camera. Love the red boots].
