The Wall of two Williams
I first got to know William Edgar Geil not through conscious re-photography, but via coincidental re-photography. He hailed from Doylestown, Pennsylvania, and as a missionary explorer in 1907-08 was believed to be the first of any nationality to travel the Great Wall of China from end to end.

Total eclipse of the heart
For those familiar with the Chinese music scene, the name Zhu Zheqin calls forth a picture of a Tibetan girl herding yaks and sheep high on the world's roof the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Eleven years after her landmark album Sister Drum's global release, Zhu, who adopted the Tibetan word Dadawa (moon) as her stage name, came back from a journey across South Asia and presented a different image in her latest album Seven Days. It was released in 2006, with a documentary, The Journey of Sound.
