Sweeping Alley in Beijing

by Gavin Corona

The frame shows a wide, low-angle view of a narrow Beijing alleyway at dawn, where the cool morning light casts long, sharp shadows across the weathered grey brick walls. One elderly resident in a faded blue jacket sweeps the damp pavement with a traditional bamboo broom, their rhythmic motion the only activity in the stillness. To the left, a stack of plastic stools sits beside a closed metal shutter, while overhead, tangled utility wires crisscross against the pale, overcast sky. The horizon line is low, showing the verticality of the residential buildings and the texture of the worn stone steps leading up to a doorway.
