A high-angle vertical documentary photograph featuring a child walking up wide stone steps toward the entrance of a traditional Chinese temple. The upper portion of the frame is dominated by the temple's grand red-walled gateway, topped with layered, upturned grey-tiled eaves and a wooden plaque inscribed with gold Chinese calligraphic characters. In the lower-right area, a small child in a bright pink coat and black pants steps upward along the wide grey stone staircase. Beyond the open doorway at the top of the steps, a potted cycad palm plant sits in an inner courtyard under bright, soft light.

A minimalist, low-saturation landscape photography capturing a distant city skyline under a heavy, overcast sky. The lower third of the frame shows the dark, muted silhouettes of high-rise buildings softly blurred into the horizon, while dense grey storm clouds hang low over the hazy atmospheric distance. An abstract, out-of-focus vertical photograph of a city at night. The dark background is dotted with soft, creamy bokeh light circles in warm yellow, white, and subtle blue, representing distant window lights and streetlamps of unseen residential high-rises.

A high-contrast street documentary photograph taken under an overpass. The top portion of the frame is heavily shadowed by the dark underside of a concrete bridge structure. In the center, a large, weathered concrete retaining wall features horizontal black pipes, subtle vertical water stains, and a bright diagonal patch of sunlight cutting across its midsection. In the bottom-right quadrant, a person wearing a backpack is silhouetted against the bright wall as they ride a scooter from right to left along a street bounded by a metal guardrail. The strong diagonal light creates a bold division between shadow and illumination, framing the lone rider within a geometric, urban environment.
