Fireworks, seems without this there is no New Year. During the week it sounded like there is war going on - explosions, smoke. This picture was taken 4 days after the new year eve for some reason there was a second firework attack happening. It went on for hours and started the next morning exactly at 8 o'clock again.

China, Shanghai

2nd week in China. As the reason to be in China is work, I might have a bit less time to travel in the far corners of the country.
