So sorry to hear this news, but I believe your decision should be the right one. Hope you would keep posting, anyway, and bring us images of the world in your eyes from Shanghai or wherever

May I take this chance to wish you a bright new year of Rat!!

I hope you continue to post photos from Shanghai and your travels. We will miss you. You might consider re-posting photos from previous years. That way, using WordPress, you could schedule a month at a time.

Lisi,
I thought about you when the Yerba Buena Arts Center here in SF has an exhibit of a new film “Zidane, A 21st Century Portrait.” It has been a huge hit at the museum. It is not available on DVD here in states but think you may find it there.

Here is blurb from museum:

“A startlingly original and audacious portrait of one of the greatest players in the history of soccer, Zinédine Zidane. 17 synchronized cameras were used, each focusing on Zidane in real time, from the first kick of the ball to the moment he was given a red card and ejected from the game. The match, between Real Madrid (Zidane’s team) and Villarreal, was played on April 23, 2005 and was witnessed by eighty thousand screaming fans.”

“Zidane himself recounts, in voice-over, what he can and cannot remember from his matches. Magnificently edited and accompanied by a majestic score from Scottish rock heroes Mogwai, this is perhaps the best sports films ever made, but also one of the finest studies of man in the workplace, an ode to the loneliness of the athlete and the poise and resilience of the human body. (2006, 92 min, 35mm)”

Dear Ms. YMBS&AS :-)…just a few words of sincere thanks for the many wonderful photos you’ve treated us at HKDP, of scenes and sights of the City we both love. I will miss your insightful pictures and commentaries terribly; you are truly a very talented photographer. Good luck Lisi…much success in the coming years and may all your good dreams come true.
