Photo: Reality

I was looking for a more upbeat photo that captured a bit of that Spring Festival snap, crackle and pop. But when I saw this photo it grabbed my attention and reminded me of the excesses of the season (which this year has been pretty much a month-long Western-Chinese celebration hybrid). The Nanning-based photographer, Sun Suri, is (I believe) our first Chinese featured in this spot. Check out her photostream for a…

Photo: The Shooting Stance

A lot of photos I choose to feature here are serious, gritty or artsy -- felt it was about time for a humorous one. Taken at Suzhou's famously-designed-by-IM-Pei museum, it looks like this guy is putting some Tai Qi lessons to practical use. Check out Jun Ballena's photostream for a whack of beautifully vibrant photography.

Photo: Rock This

From the always amazing photostream of Michael Steverson. In his words: "Sugar Rush performs at The Terrace in Shenzhen, China. First image of a photo documentary on rock music in China. I've been working on the project for a while now and I'm hoping to wrap it up by the fall. I'll be dropping some of these onto Flickr over time."

Photo: Elderly Vanity

A great capture from the very talented Poland-born, Chengdu-based photographer Michal Pachniewski. In his words: "I was just about to take the picture when she stopped me for a second. She took of her red hat, combed her hair and posed for me. Sweet moment."

Photo: No Pinyin Allowed

An intriguing photo of a Jiefang Lu street sign in Sanya by Django Malone. Anti-pinyin radicals (no pun intended) or just random graffiti?

Photo: Outdoor Pool

With Summer's inferno holding much of China tight in her sweaty clutches, I thought it poignant for the latest featured photo to be a capture of something I had never seen before coming to China, and think is all around a fantastic idea -- outdoor pool (as in balls and cues, not laps and pee). Throw in a bit of chuar and a whole lot of perspiring cheap beer and summer hot summer nights don't get any better. This is…

Amazing Dalian Oil Fire/Spill Photos

No matter where we end up in China, or out, the first port of call any laowai makes in this country surely stays near and dear. Such is Dalian for me. I lived in Dalian for my first 18 months in China and return at least once a year to visit inlaws and friends.

The city is constantly touted as a clean and beautiful city, so, to see it suffering through one of the country's worst oil spill disasters sucks. To catch…
