Foiling Schemes of Mara
I mixed some pleasure with business and hit up Wuxi last week, a “town” (population 4.5 million) a 2hr drive north-west from Shanghai (map here).
Visited the Ling Shan Buddhist Scenic Spot, which includes Nanchan Temple, “5 Signet’s” Temple, the 88m Grand Buddha (8th tallest in the world), and the impressive [¥ 2billion] Brahma Palace, which you may only enter if you wear shoe covers.

Welcome!
Lover. Hater. Photographer.
I am a Belgian-New Yorker based in Shanghai, China.
My images convey my attraction to the qualities of urban light at night. This light, combined with nocturnal colors and odd forms, creates a mysterious grandeur within cities that can overwhelm us all.
