Street Impressions in Pudong
Last December, I wandered through Pudong's streets, taking in the quiet charm of local life against the backdrop of an ordinary urban skyline. Parents gathered expectantly at the kindergarten gate, their anticipation palpable as they waited for their children to emerge.

Shaking ( 31.19,121.52 ) Workers were cutting a steel pipe by the street, sending sparks flying into the air. Sparks Flying ( 31.18,121.52 ) As the golden hour approached, the dog's tail grass by the street shimmered in the warm, soft light.
