"from Flickr Giants Group

Are you looking for some new photos? So this photostream is the place you should visit frequently. Michael is one of the most productive flickr photographers with a real wide collection. It is absolutely interesting to follow this artistic evolution.

Besides he is on the straight way to become a Flickr Giant.

"I love his photos and it is amazing what he can do with a 'simple' point and click camera. I've been to Nanning and these photos really capture the beauty of this city in great china. Well done!"

"Here is a photographer that proves it isn't the camera that matters, but the eye behind it. In this day and age where advanced technology screams to be used, that's some achievement."

Matt 天天 says:
"Just wanted to drop a line for one of my favorite photographers on Flickr. He originally inspired me to buy the G9, and many other people as well I have no doubt.
I am always motivated to get the most out of my P&S because of what I've seen possible from him.
The variety of photography he has mastery over seems to have no limit.
He has taught me almost everything I know about photography and I am humbled by his constant support."

"I first discovered Michael's work even before I came to China. As I was preparing for my own Chinese adventure, I would often check out photos of China here on Flickr. Nearly every night for 6 months, even before I owned a camera, I found myself gravitating toward his photostream. I still remember sitting at my desk in Colorado looking at his photos with my jaw open.

After spending a day with him in Nanning, I can say with all honesty, the man is nothing short of brilliant. Humble, gracious, kind, a fantastic photographer and a better man. His "Life In Nanning" portrays China as few outside of this country get to see it. His work moves me, it makes me feel something, and that is what all great art should do I think.

He may be surprised to hear it, but he is greatly responsible for my growth as a photographer, teaching me how to start taking photographs and stop taking snapshots. He has great eyes and simply produces images that I am not capable of. Now, if he could only learn how to ride a bike.

This is the first Flickr testimonial I've ever written and to be frank it is long overdue. I am proud to know this man, proud to call him my friend. Treat yourself and spend some time discovering Asia in his photostream."

"Chinapix

I found him on www.flickr.com by accident!!

As a foreigner living & learning Chinese in China, is a very challenging experience in his life.

However, he is so kind in investing his time & resources & sharing all his images with us.

I am very very impress with the Quality & Standard of each of his image. All are superb......

You would enjoy like I do when you are here to discover.....

I am sure he would be a great Imaging Artist within days!!

You are great.

I appreciate your everything....."

"Chinapix 有一双富于观察的眼睛和把对异族文化的敏感巧妙地透过镜头反映出来的天赋.他很幸运地生活在一个尚未被中国的现代化完全淹没的城市, 从而能够发现一些在许多其它城市已经消失的东西.

感谢分享.

Chinapix has observing eyes and the raw talent to represent his sensitivity on Chinese cultural/social phenomenon through the lens. He is lucky enough to live in a city where the modernization has not completely claimed the victory so he is able to find something very interesting and something that has long gone from many other cities.

Thanks for sharing."
