It was a chilly Saturday around mid-day and the temperature was around 8C. The sun was high in the sky and people were in a generally good mood. We were on a famous street famous for its Ginko trees. I’m with Charlene and her two chihuahuas Asahi and Xiaofeng.Asahi is a chill male and Xiaofeng is an aggressive female but for a reason. She was rescued by Charlene from a horrible situation where she lived with several people in a 1 room apartment and was never allowed to go outside. Both dogs were adopted by Charlene who obviously cared for them a lot.She asked me if i could get some photos of them and the timing was perfect for the ginko leaves, so off we went.
Here are some shots from our day together.
