Photo Tour
Posted on 16 February 2010
Today we had a field trip for our Photo History class and for our field trip we went to Mrs. Harkins’ Chinese friend’s house with his personal art gallery, and must I say, it was an amazing collection that Mr. Charles Jing had collected. Many of these pieces are worth hundreds and thousands of dollars in fact, according to Mrs. Harkins one of the collection itself was worth 1 million dollar. We met Mr. Charles Jing’s wife, she was a very nice and friendly lady, it was a pity we were not able to meet Mr. Charles Jing, he had business to attend and was unable to meet us, but we did also met his adorable son.
This field trip was very educational and well worth it.
I had carpool with a fellow classmate Lisa and I had left my camera in my car, when I realized that my camera was in my car, it was too late to turn back so I had only used my blackberry to photography the pictures only. Sorry guys!! But enjoy the pictures from the blackberry.

Dang girl, he must be hecka rich!! Living in a HUGE house like that, wowzers!!!
You know the saying, “The best camera is the one that’s with you.”
His house is huge, does he open to the public?
Lasia, wait til you go inside! it’s beautiful and HUGe! Oh and this is just his entertainment home, they do not live in this house!!!
Nye, I don’t think he opens it to the public, it’s in a very nice neighborhood. My teacher said that he only uses this house to entertain famous Chinese people and business.
