usually i don’t show photographs of public viewing events – quality is bad and it’s in a way only a third hand experience.
but this was so touching i almost cried, a fact that should happen only once every 5 years. this couple, lacking one arm and one leg, moved so harmoniously, alone and together, it was really incredible.
reflecting, i admit having had some uneasy feelings afterwards, too. the chinese try so much to impress that this performance only too probably can have been just one world’s first of a kind with which they wanted to impress us. but anyhow, for me it was a deeply moving experience.
