I have just added a gallery from our recent trip to China- One month in the world's most populated country, it was amazing. Most of the China pictures are digital. I also took a very heavy Yashica twin lens camera, look for more film pics to be added in the next day or so when they are scanned.

Please also check out the 2nd gallery on the site, marked "dreams" which I think comes closest to what I am trying to do with my photography.
