When i arrive in Shanghai in 2000 i was so impressed by the culture difference and the city, i used to have long walks with my camera (at that time i had no digital camera, and there was so many shops to develop films everywhere in Shanghai).

I tried pretty much all the shops to get good results with my films, but it was quite hard as they never had a standard, plus they lost a lot of my negatives…Anyway still have some scans of this period when i was discovering Shanghai.
