Most of my visitors to this site would have realised the 'big shine' I have taken towards the flickr website. Primarily it is a fantastic way to organise and share your photos with your friends. But where flickr truly excels is as a community portal. Pick a topic, and you can find immense photo collections on almost any topic. So if you're a foreigner living in a foreign land, its natural to expect that you want to explore your new home from the comfort of your own living room (on the occasions that you're not out meeting the locals, backpacking around, and taking photos that is). So when surfing around on flickr, and in particular with photos tagged with shanghai I came across Tommy Oshima's flickr page. This guy can take a great photograph - like the one highlighted here. If you've nothing else to do today, next week, or next month, I'd honestly recommend that you go and check out his photo collection. You won't be sorry that you did.
