A recent photography competition awarded the most touching pictures incorporating the Shanghai Expo theme. Many of the winning pictures were captured by the cameras of non-professionals, some even used their cell phones. But, as the judging panel noted, whether skills were good or bad, each of these pictures show an actual experience and genuine emotion.
With the old city wall serving as the backdrop, this picture shows a non-Chinese studying Peking Opera from a senior artist. It has won the first prize within the "City Impression" category at the competition.
In keeping with the Expo slogan "Better City, Better Life", this competition is split into two categories: "City Impression" and "Expo Impression".

Li Ge, Photographerm People's Daily, said, "The Expo means much more than what we see within Expo Park. Many of the works submitted focused their lens on the lifestyles that are presented by the architecture and exhibitions."
Works by both professional and amateur photographers were solicited. And over 40,000 pictures were received from around China and the world over a six-month period.
