Shanghai is full of contrast: huge modern shopping avenues like Nanjing Road bustling with tourists and businessmen, connecting to smelly narrow alleys with laundry hanging overhead and bamboo-based saffolding. These multiple facets definitely offer plenty of photo opportunities, including my favorites below. For example, the Bund features many beautiful colonial buildings from the 1930s, facing the modern skyscrapers across the river in Pudong. It’s a prime spot for making selfies. Also, the Yu Garden is full of traditional pavilions and koi ponds. In the end, I was also able to capture some scenes from everyday life. I like the picture with the motorcyclist: at a busy intersection, I saw this man and managed to get his face in the rearview mirror.
