 Photo taken on Nov. 9, 2014 shows shadow puppets during a shadow puppet exhibition in Shijiazhuang, capital of north China's Hebei Province. Chinese shadow puppetry is a form of theatre whereby colourful silhouette figures perform traditional plays against a back-lit cloth screen, accompanied by music and singing. Puppeteers make the figures from leather or paper and manipulate them by means of rods to create the illusion of moving images. (Xinhua/Wang Xiao)
