Shanghai Bund [上海外滩]

Alright, my second (and probably last) photo session around the Huang Pu river. I should really move away from this area to avoid the cliché photos of Shanghai. But nevertheless, I think this is the most standard Shanghai photo that any photographer must have something to show, like when you go to NYC you have to shoot the World Trade Center (back then) or the Empire State building, and of course the Status of Liberty (even from very far and foggy). When you go to Paris you have to shoot the Eiffel Tower. When you go to Toronto you have to shoot the CN Tower. When you come to Shanghai you have to shoot the Bund and Pudong Oriental Pearl Tower! But from now on I will save my time of other creative works… Hopefully my creative side is still active…
