To mark the 50th anniversary of the Tibetan Uprising, 3000 Tibetans, friends and supporters took to the streets of downtown Taipei on Saturday afternoon to show their hope and fears for the future, and remind the world of the ongoing oppression of Tibetans by the Chinese communist government. Below you can see some of the faces of participants. David Reid and Neil Wade also have reports on the action. Don’t forget to click on the pictures for a larger version.

Craig Ferguson Images | Cultural Photography. One of the key aspects of life that we humans identify with is culture. We label people, places and events according to our ideas of what they are, ranging from the broader scale defined by tradition and place down to the small scale subcultures and tribes. Craig Ferguson Images is consistantly creating new visions in the field of cultural photography. From traditional festives and customs to modern, urban subcultures, Craig Ferguson Images is in touch with the changing world. From our base in Taipei, Taiwan we are perfectly positioned at the crossroads of the ancient and the modern.

THIS is great photojournalism. I love the color throughout and the subtle post work. I can't say enough about this set. Awesome.
Thanks. This was the second shooting gig of the day. I was exhausted by the end of my days shooting, which ran from 9am until 1am.
