Cluttered Workbench in Shanghai
Sunlight slashes through the narrow alleyway of a Shanghai lilong, illuminating a cluttered workbench where a tailor adjusts a pair of dark trousers.

The distinctive grey brick walls of the residential complex, with laundry hanging in the background, creating a candid snapshot of daily life in a traditional neighborhood.
