An empire of the ancients presently amidst one the most rapid transitions in its vast history, Beijing is both a sepia-toned portrait of the past and a gleaming metropolis of the future. As China is pushed along by reality and the old order is swept away, all eyes are on Beijing. Do we embrace her advancement or weep for time immemorial?

An empire of the ancients presently amidst one the most rapid transitions in its vast history, Beijing is both a sepia-toned portrait of the past and a gleaming metropolis of the future. As China is pushed along by reality and the old order is swept away, all eyes are on Beijing. Do we embrace her advancement or weep for time immemorial? As seen in photojournalist Tom Carter's upcoming book of photography 'CHINA: Portrait of a People,' due out this winter from Hong Kong publisher Blacksmith Books. http://www.tomcarter.org
