The Dragon and the Girl, a photo from Hebei, North

Photographer's Note

The Jinshanling section of the Great Wall, 125 km northeast of Beijing. This section is 10,5 km long and was built from 1570 during the Ming Dynasty. Some parts are completely restored but some are not as you can see on the photo. It's truly a unique place to observe the "Earth Dragon" meandering across the mountainous landscape.

Hi Marton!
Good to see you back:)! I was here in 2008 But I'd gladly go back. It's wonderful and it didn't have many tourists then. Great pov and composition, I like it partially in ruins and the woman in foreground. Very good in b&w!

Hello, Marton!

That's a very nice capture of this famous wall, with this diagonal line making the image very attractive! Very good depth, and the presence of the lonely person walking on the wall is great! Wonderful job!

Hi Marton
wonderful photo all around. looking at your gallery page this one stands out so well, makes a huge visual impact.

I'm glad to see that the Wall isn't full of people, i love the fact that this is so wide open, and the singular lady is fantastic. looks like she has a long long way to go :)

super shot with this vertical composition.
cheers
Craig
