I found the adaptation to the canal bridge in today's photo to be a wonderfully simple solution to aiding people with bicycles crossing over the canals of Suzhou on the many bridges in the city.
For me, it was like looking through the portal to a hidden world. Much like my photo of the woman washing her hair, I felt a little as though I was intruding, but in this shot the cyclist can obviously see me.
'I want to go left!', is what I imagine the lady in today's photo is trying to communicate. Meanwhile, her husband lounges at the helm of the boat looking on, thankful he's not facing his wife.
'Wash rinse repeat' is the age old maxim of shampoo sellers trying to get you to use more shampoo than you need.
It looks to me as though this lady is doing her washing up in the river flowing past her door - Suzhou, China, 1991. Behind the tree with the flame-orange leaves, a neighbor looks on.
'A river runs through it' is what you can imagine happening to these houses if the river rises another six inches or so.
