These skateboarders were hanging around the old Catholic church on WangFuJing Street, Beijing. Now, the street is the premier shopping district in Beijing, lined with all sorts of malls. The church, which was built about a century ago, still has services every week. However, it does not have the official recognition of the Vatican. Before I took this picture, I talked to many of the skateboarders, who despite showing off their rebellious tattoos, hairstyles, etc., were really quite shy.
