China, after all, is ++++ the West, don't you think so? 😊View attachment 2441572
Apple Store. Pudong, Shanghai, China. Taken this afternoon.
It is somewhat comforting that we have a monument to remember those who were killed by a rather deranged individual. However, the photo I posted earlier was of a man who sent soldiers to fight and die in the First World War, and yet we have a monument dedicated to him, maintained by the city and country, which has become a tourist attraction. There are many such monuments scattered across the globe. It’s a peculiar world!
this thread is for one photo a day. since you've now posted a couple of times with two photos, i just wanted to make sure you knew the rules. 🙂
Would be great if Xenforo lets me normally show the first post but that seems impossible on any thread with a lot of posts. :/this thread is for one photo a day. since you've now posted a couple of times with two photos, i just wanted to make sure your knew the rules. 🙂

Welcome to Photo of the Day. The POTD thread was started by iGary in May, 2006 and converted to a monthly thread in November 2007 by Arn. POTD is one of the most popular picture groups on MacRumors, often exceeding 500 posts and 20,000 views per month.
Photo of the Day is intended to be a showcase for your best pictures. There is no limit to your gear, just your imagination. P&S and film cameras are welcome along with DSLRs. There are no themes like the Weekly Contest, and no winners (or losers) either.
POTD Thread Policies
- One Photo per Day - Don't post more than one photo each day. Diptychs, triptychs, etc. are OK.
- All photos should be your own work unless special circumstances have been agreed.
- Multi-Quote - To comment on several photos, click the "+ (Multi-Quote) button. This puts all your comments in one post. Multi-Quoting is required on all of the MacRumors forums.
- Safe for Work (SFW) only - This is a site-wide rule. If you wouldn't show it in a public place, then it's NSFW (not safe for work). Think before you post.
- Describe your photo - Tell what it is and where you took it. If you know the EXIF data of a photo, include it. The following EXIF fields are recommended: Camera, ISO, Focal Length, Shutter/Aperture and Lens.
- Note: Anyone may start the Photo of the Day thread on the first of the month GMT. Please copy a quote of this post to maintain all the formatting.
- Please don't alter or expand these policies - If you think they need improvement, use a separate thread to discuss.
- Past POTD threads from August 2013 onwards can be seen here

When you have a moment, could you snap some photos of a 'typical' computer arcade over there? They were absolutely buzzing with people the last time I was in China, which was quite some time ago.View attachment 2441861
Inside the Apple Store. I had never been inside one of these glass-encased-entrance, below-ground-level stores. Very cool. Shanghai, China. Taken yesterday.
If I come across one, I will and I’ll share it. Thus far I’ve been somewhat trapped in hotels and their environs - usually attached malls such as the IFC Mall where the Apple Store is.When you have a moment, could you snap some photos of a 'typical' computer arcade over there?

A delightful edible flower, though it has a slightly sour taste.
