Taken @ some small lane nearby Suzhou Creek, shanghai
The real street scene is hiding in those old houses. If you dont step forward you cant see the real civilians. I like to see it even sometimes when you are being refused to take the photos there. But I still want to show it in my way. 
Wish you have a real better week ~ 
yes…….step forward……………see what is real!!!!, I like your mindset: that drives your passion to express what your heart see’s. When it ends up here. or on your flickr page…It can show us something of that feeling: you had, at that moment of……….seeing the real !!!!
A “real” better, good……interesting the way you write
