It has been a frustrating week of waiting for the weather to cooperate. I haven't taken any photos since last Thursday! Even without shooting I have been busy processing images and meeting with people.
On Sunday we traveled to Wuhan to photograph an international school. We walked around the site in the afternoon and got just a tiny bit of pale blue skies. Little did we know that we should have taken advantage of that because it was our only glimpse.
We spent all day Monday and half the day Tuesday waiting for the sun. I really don't know what to call this weather since pollution isn't something that they can forecast.
Day one around noon. There are many more buildings hiding in that haze.
Day two around 8am. I can only hope that most of this was fog.
The forecast called for sunny days, and the second day was sunny eventually but the pollution levels were so high the sun never created a solid shadow. It is strange to know that it is sunny somewhere up there, but it felt like a dreary rainy day. We finally gave up and went back to Shanghai.
Blah.
I worked from our Shanghai office today to weed through the more than 500 emails that have come in during the trip! This was the view from our office. Oddly I think the photo makes it look much nicer than it actually was.
Sadly this was refreshing although still gross.
I will try to write about positive things very soon...
