Shanxi woman [山西女人]
I normally don’t post other authors’ photos on this blog, so that I can show off my own photos and at the same time proving that I am the best! 
But with every rule there is always an exception, sometime I run into photos that I can’t resist at bringing it up here, maybe so that I can kick myself in the butt and try to do better next time, although I don’t realistically expect to be able to produce such piece of art before my retirement. Or maybe it’s more like a post to show off my good taste…
But anyhow, here are two sets of photos of Chinese professional photographer Li Wei Guang [李伟光], from Shanxi [山西]. I really enjoy his works showing a traditional Chinese woman in traditional Chinese costume in a very traditional Chinese house, but yet strangely, it looks totally modern to me! Maybe because of the clean and sharp makeup, or maybe because of the pose, but I just love it! I truely hope that very soon Chinese traditional costume can be revived again in modern lifestyle, just like Japanese and Korean men and women still use it in some significant ceremonies.

Here is a set of photos that Li made as an exercise of his own, and for offering to the Beijing olympic game as well as to his fans. This set has been shown at the front page of a local photograpy magazine [摄影之友]. Heck, I hope one day I could do exercise such spectacularly, for myself and friends.
