Qibao

Qibao in Shanghai

Strolling around in the old town Qibao (七宝镇), Shanghai. Its formation can be traced back to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, to the Northern Song Dynasty. Back then it was dangerous to cross the bridge, because of the Nine Dragons (九龍圖卷) that constantly flew over the town, always ready to eat or mate with a random person.

Tilt-Shift Itsukushima Shrine

Photographed and enhanced with tilt-shifting last year during low tide, the Itsukushima Shrine (厳島神社), is a Shinto shrine on the island of Itsukushima (popularly known as Miyajima). It is in the city of Hatsukaichi in Hiroshima Prefecture in Japan. The shrine complex is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Japanese government has designated several buildings and possessions as National Treasures. Every day the water floods the whole torii gate and it appears to be floating.
