With your permission, I'm pulling a "switcheroo" today--I've tossed the image I was using as the header yesterday and found some older photos--three of them--shot 14, 15, and 17 months ago in San Francisco's Chinatown.

Again, these first three photos are a not new. I think this snap is a gem.

The vegetable stalls, meat markets, and delicatessens of Chinatown are
operated on a local level. Enterprise flourishes. The nearest Safeway is miles away.

I'll have to send my buddy Diane Liu a note asking if she can translate this. Anybody else want to take a crack at it? It's in the window of a restaurant and bar on Waverly Place.


CLICK for the very "best" of my work on my photo website.

Not me! but it makes a nice shot! Love the Chinatown series, as usual.

Did you ever find the Banksy? (at the corner of Commercial and Stockton, I think)
