北京站2


My second trip to Beijing Railway Station.  I love it there.  Can really see some interesting people.  Keep in mind that not all people there look like the ones below but I think they are some of the most interesting.  They are the kind of people not often found in Beijing but have so much character and you can tell they have really had a tough life.





I almost didn't photograph this woman.  She obviously has a mental problem and was standing there talking to herself.  She seems to be extremely poor as you can see by her shoes which are bags tied around her feet.  However, when I saw her in this pose I decided to go ahead and take the photo, one you can't see her face so it seems less intrusive, and two she looked slightly more peaceful sitting on the ground.
