Here is a selection of photos from my recent travels in China. I have chosen those that I think exhibit a more "street photography" style. All shot on Rollei Retro 400S 35mm film with a Nikon F801 and 35mm F2.8 AIS lens. All developed in XTOL.

What a cracking set of pictures (y), it is pity 11 is so dark it would be interesting to see what they are doing.
 
A really excellent set, gives a great insight into the area.

looking at 13, you must be pretty tall! i'm in china myself at the moment and at 6'4" i definitely get a good view over crowds..

great shots, did u develop out there? i've got a roll of b+w i need to develop, but can't find any labs that do b+w so need to get the chemicals somehow.

That's what I get for relying so much on the camera's inbuilt metering. Ought to have overexposed a bit to compensate for the bright street outside, but I didn't think of it. I'm not too bothered by the darkness myself as it feels "right" to me, it was a bit dark in there, but then I know exactly what was happening so the point of interest is different for me.

Nah, I'm about the same height as everyone else there. The pic is wonky because I held the camera above my head to shoot. "F8 and be there" and all that.

I didn't dev anything in China, I waited till I was back here.
 
Another set of China photos?!

I really like these too, think 8 and 9 are my favourites.
