HK is the best place for watch movie, they have the same time with global but china not.

people say freelances can do anything they want at anytime but I know some freelancers but they are not they worry about this month I need to work and I need money.
Maybe they can make money one day like I am working for 1 month but the stress is very big.
before we listened to music anything we like but right now maybe some singers is not support china and we cannot find the singer online.

I insist watch movie in the cinema so I will go to the cinema watch first one and when the movie can be watched online I will watch the full version.

If a brand wants to use an official picture it is ugly. People think I don’t buy it we can do better pictures for their products but they want to use this official picture.

I am not a camera guy I help my colleagues.
Usually in our office but depends some different situations if a client wants a shooting outside we will find some parks or some farm they want to shoot urban city style.

Around SH you can find a farm

I shoot photo for my social media.
I just go home one night and the street only has me and I look around and I find this and I strand far away and I choose the zoom to get closer.

and the guy looks at the bear and touches it’s face.
If you want to know me we can see each others face to face.
