A fabulous take on the great wall. Though i have seen thousands of images of this spectacular project, i have not seen it so dramatically exhibited. The blues are many and of various hues and shades; it is an image of serenity and this is, in some ways, so full of irony in that so much labor and so many lives were exhausted in its construction. This is not to be critical, only factual. Considering the amazing progress china has made in the last two decades, the wall is still a symbol of what a nation can do and can be when unified for defense or for economic progress. An ancient image in blue to a nation that is leaping into this new 21 st century with a speed and precision that seems totally miraculous. Congratulations to china and congratulations to the photographer, aileenie
