Thank you. There are several ten thousands of tulou in both Yong Ding and Nan Jing area. In each village, there are clusters of tulou, both the common round and rectangular types as well as oval type in Tianluo cluster.

Thank you. Actually after seeing numerous tulou, it gets a bit boring and monotonous - the excitement wanes with each passing tulou. The walk around the each village however, is very interesting. It's wonderful to soak-in, feel the community living and talk to people.

nice persimmon and great eye feast on your composition. the sky i thinks works better with white than with that yellow tinge. i think you probably prefer the latter maybe for an old photo feel, but just offering my subjective opinions too as i think white colors goes well with dark blackish brown.

Thank you, zoossh. Your comments are always welcome and your guess is correct - just a personal preference over the whiter sky.

Here are fresh persimmons on the tree ...

Are your photos a touch yellow-ish or is it just my screen?

Probably it is the combination of both reasons: Mainly because I've adjusted color temperature heavily towards "red" than in "blue" or "neutral" and it appears to be less evident in my notebook than yours.
