Photographer's Note

It seems to be habitual for Chengdu kids to ride while standing up on bicycle. Notice that the boy is reading without distraction but the mother made a dissatisfactory face at my presence.

Very interesting juxtaposition of the woman riding in traffic and the boy passenger reading, as though he's oblivious to his surroundings. I would have preferred it if the woman wasn't looking at the camera. I think this shot would work better as a natural vignette of life in Chengdu, rather than an interaction between subject and phtographer.
