The touristy guards Photo

Photographer’s Note

Not your usual tourists. They are guards in charge of the lowering of the flag at the Tian'anmen Square which usually draws a big crowd before the gates leading inside are opened to tourists.

Hi Jane, a great photo of men doing a professional job in a not so professional manner, good timing, love it kind regards Wilson.

Hi Jane,
Nice evening shot of an amusing situation...those Chinese PSB sometimes so menacing, others so awkward....
I would have liked to see you just a bit closer for this although that would have been a bit unnerving.
Cheers
Mark
