Visibility
Personal memory by Zhen Yin
2012 • Beijing, China
"I grew up in Beijing. When I was young, about 80's, I like to stand on my home's balcony at sunset and see the beautiful red clouds over the mountains. But now, even the mountains are not visible any more in most of the days. With tons of tall buildings and mostly blury white skies, it will be really hard to find a spot and day to catch what I saw in my childhood."
