Through Tami's Lens

Everyday life here in China is extremely exciting... if you see things through "Tami's Lens".

This must be why I am always hanging out with this gal. She sees the fun and excitement in all the little things here in China. She is a talented photographer and has taken near professional pictures for several people.

On this day, I played the passive role to Tami's "did you get a picture of that? Hurry quick, click it! Did you notice... quick, grab your camera!" If you want to see all the details of what she catches on film-- stop by and see: HER BLOG

Here's Tami negotiating the price for a needle threader. These ladies are telling her how to use it.


Chicken feet and organs up for grabs. And tongues.


Cute little hand-made stroller. Even cuter baby!


These are split-crotch pants that are used instead of diapers. The babies are potty-trained early in China... they are the experts. Sometimes when I pick Tanner up from school, and if he's spilled on his pants, he'll come home in a pair of these and his dirty pants in a bag.


Getting the up close details of the open markets in China.


Pig noses, hearts, lungs etc. I am being pretty vague in the "etc". Anybody up for a round of "guess that organ?"


Sally sells seashells...


At my favorite fried rice place. Notice the stray cat in the background?


At the fabric market. Anybody up for a round of "name that fur"?

Notice it's on wheels... wonder why...


Peeling a Paloma fruit. Did I even spell that right? It's a fruit that's green on the outside, about the size of a small volleyball, and has a thick husk. It's like a sweet grapefruit. You eat it like you would an orange.


But peel it like a flower.

Thanks for playing Tami!
