SHANGHAI — Many Americans who move here end up in high-rise buildings surrounded by other expatriates. But Nichol Bradford wanted a more authentic experience. “I wasn’t moving halfway around the world, leaving everything I knew and everyone I loved, to play it safe,” said Ms. Bradford, 38, a video game executive who relocated from Los Angeles in 2008. “I certainly wasn’t going to live in a building that could have been in any other city.” When she arrived in Shanghai, Ms. Bradford consulted a number of real estate agents, a necessity in a city where no one broker has access to every listing. Instead of conducting an Internet search from thousands of miles away, she said, she talked to “the little realtors on the corners” in the neighborhoods she liked. She settled on the area of Huaihai Lu, a popular shopping street in the city’s former French Concession, where buildings have retained their prewar charm.

i needed to infuse a little creativity into my physics-packed current life. Electric fields and capacitors and resistors are rather boring...

I'm not going anywhere exciting for the summer holidays and most of the people I know work during the day, so I decided to spend the first few days creating a photobook about my trip to China last year using www.Blurb.com

I have been sorting through all the images I took last year and have been happy to find a few images that I never got round to processing. Hence the upload.

Taken in Shanghai I loved the traditional style gateway with the large sky scrapers in the background
