We are delighted to have a China expert here. Your photos are beautiful and your book looks fascinating. May I ask when you did the backpacking trip? And did you find you were free to go wherever you wanted, or was there governmental interference?

I arrived in China in 2004, but my actual backpacking trip was between early 2006 - late 2007. I encountered occasional interference from local police for my photography and was almost arrested a few times. You can read about all the juicy details here: http://playthegameforopen...view-with-tom-carter.html Ups and downs came daily, but overall the trip was very heart-warming. I hope my book reflects that. Tom
