Novice Paparazzi

Was in Guangzhou airport two days ago (Apr 28), on my way back from the 5th China-Asean Youth Camp. It was quite a packed itinerary for the 8-day programme, and it was only then that I had time to go browse a bookshop and look for former Caijing editor Hu Shuli's new creation, the Century Weekly magazine (新世纪周刊). 

And when I was talking with my friend Joanne and drifting towards the cashier with my magazine in hand, guess who I saw? 

Eason Chan!

I think it was my first time bumping into a regional (can't exactly say international, see) star anywhere, and we got quite excited. Judging from the gathering crowd of shop assistants around him, Joanne and I weren't the only ones. So what's a photographer to do?

It was quite a fun encounter. But I think I was a little too nervous that afternoon. I should have at least taken a clear shot of him. 

Till next time...
