Window on the World, aka Selfie Heaven, Shenzhen, China, X100F
Window on the World, Shenzhen — a place purpose-built for the selfie generation, and completely sincere about it. The X100F held low, shooting upward into the light. Monochrome turns a chaotic colour scene into a study in backlit silhouettes: the phone screen glowing against the face, reflective surfaces multiplying the light. Sometimes the most honest photograph of a moment is the one where everyone is photographing themselves. See the full article: China — Shenzhen Day 3 on IJM Photography.

Amazing play of light and shadows 🌑📸✨ Shenzhen looks magical in monochrome! 🏙️🖤

I was very taken by China and yes, monochrome does work well there. It can be a bit colourful sometimes…
