[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A part of the skyline inside the Forbidden city, the old imperial palace, in Beijing. This picture was taken in 1986 when I travelled through a China where economic reforms were slowly taking off. Since then the country has undergone a total makeover.
Scanned from a Kodachrome slide, taken with a Canon F-1.
