Chinese Daily Photos, 2011 to 2019!

I post most of these photos in another thread at SSC....skyscrapercity. Yesterday I got a complaint;

Popeye, can You please not post death scenes from roads? Knowing that is happens is bad enough, but looking at this really doesn't one's day...

and...

It's not just dead bodies, but these traffic tragic scenes in general. They do happen every day, we all know about it even without such photos. And it doesn't offend me at all. I just think there might be some other photos from daily life that will at least not bring one's spirits down so much, that's all.

The reason I post them is because there's very little hard news coming out of China. Very little. Most of the photos are of agriculture, dignitaries, school children, job fairs, trade shows, conferences, pretty girls etc...etc. There are sometimes more horrific photos on sina.cn. I avoid posting those.

I hope you are joking because I don't spam. I would not gain anything by spamming anyone. I do not own this site. The long missing Dongfeng does as far as I know. It may have passed hands because Dongfeng has been MIA since 2009.

I have no political agenda what so ever. I post Chinese photos for the enjoyment of all who want to view than and to present the Chinese people as they truly are. With their families, their daily lives cultural and news events.

And that's all I want to do.

Long ago I got tired of people at mp.net portraying the Chinese people in an unkind light. Evil at times. I do not approve of bigotry of any sort. So I started these Chinese daily photos. I had one going at mp.net but a lot of my photos kept getting deleted..so I quit posting the Chinese photos over at mp.net.

And who knows what Equation would do if you stopped posting these photos? Probably get some work done... and nobody wants to see that!

Their pictures are high in anti-oxidants. But if you already have a weak heart, stick to the other threads.
