This photo of a street scene has a lot in it:
- The volleyball advertisment: I’ve always thought that this advertisement is cool. Looks great.
- The KTV Hotel: which you can find throughout in China – although I’m not into Karaoke myself, KTV is an important part of everyday life in China.
- Bicycles on top of a hut: which seems to be UPS hut, providing bicycle couriers I guess. Modern China.
But the real value in this photo comes from the couple sitting on the bench. Their positioning is great: leaning against each other, while the mother nurses the baby, her leg up against the plant holder. Its a classic!
The other stuff in the photo is interesting, but without the couple, it would not add up to a photo I’d pick to highlight on JobsInChina. In fact, the photo would probably benefit from cropping the rest out and making the couple the focus of the photo.
