Sinostory 2011: Beijing

北京

For several years now I have been organizing trips to China for college students who study photography and video production. Each year we visit several cities in a whirlwind 2 week trek across China's eastern seaboard trying to absorb the culture, make new friends, and capture portfolio worthy images. This year's trip began in Beijing, with only a few days in China's massive capitol we only managed to visit a few choice locations before heading south.  Here are a few of my best images from our few days in Beijing, with future posts from other cities soon to follow.
