Qidong, Hunan shot from the hip

The photographs were taken when I visited Qidong in Hunan, China. My brother's wife comes from there and I went there just after his wedding in Henyang City to visit his extended in laws. All of the photographs were shot from the hip, I like using this technique sometimes when walking around, allows me to capture moments that might otherwise be disturbed if I raised my camera to eye level to shoot.
