东水门桥 by JulienFolcher

The Dongshuimen bridge is one of the latest additions to the city of Chongqing. First time I visited it was still under construction.
The bridge actually comes in three parts, a bridge crossing the Jialing river, a tunnel going under Jiefangbei, and then another bridge crossing the Yangtze river (this part in the photo is the part crossing the Jialing river, you can see the other bridge on the Yangtze in a previous photograph I uploaded, the one with the cable car).

Chongqing nights III by JulienFolcher

During my stay in Chongqing I was able to find some really cool rooftops from where I could get views of the skyline. unfortunately the weather wasn’t on my side and all the sunset were wrapped in a thick layer of fog and pollution.

This one turned out to be better at night, once the yangtze river cruise boats turn their lights on and come and go around the Chaotianmen peninsula.

Initially I was going going for a stack of all the images I took from this roof to maximize the traffic on the river, but once I was editing the images and stacking them it looked very messy. I opted for only one exposure, which looks a lot cleaner actually.

Red Beijing by JulienFolcher

This the last amazing sunset I got to see from my apartment window in Beijing before moving out… The light was incredible.

The afternoon was very polluted, but right before sunset it started to rain a little and the fresh wind from the mountain started to clear the pollution.

I really hated polluted days in Beijing, but under certain condition it could give the sky some crazy colors… I saw an article a while ago saying pollution was giving Beijing some Mars – like sunsets, this is one of them.

Ghosts on the bridge by JulienFolcher

Hangzhou is the fourth and last city I am visiting for this trip. I will be leaving the country tomorrow, heading to Sydney… Feeling very blue.

I will still be uploading photos of China for a while, I am sitting on a massive pile of unprocessed raw files from Beijing, Chengdu, Chongqing, Shanghai and Hangzhou.

I haven’t been very lucky with the weather in Hangzhou, it was raining for the whole I was there. Upside is that daytime black and white look awesome, so much atmosphere and very beautiful soft gradients in the sky.
