Or maybe that was just smog.

On Location: Beijing hangs through March 21 at the Holly Johnson Gallery, 1411 Dragon St. Gallery hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays. Call 214-369-0169 or visit hollyjohnsongallery.com.

Tuesdays-Saturdays. Starts: Feb. 21. Continues through March 21, 2009
