Photo Friday #25
Uygur man in night market area, Kashgar, Xinjiang Province, October 2009
The streets of Kashgar are chaos – motorbikes and taxis swerve among the pedestrians, kicking up dust. Food vendors call out to potential patrons. Kids run down the streets shouting with each other. Buses barrel down the wider avenues, honking at nearly everything. The occasional call to prayer broadcasts from the small mosques. Craftsmen hammer away at pots and pans. And in the middle of all of that sits this Uygur gentleman, oblivious to the movement and noise around him.

I agree – I’d love to find that kind of peace amidst chaos.
