Description

Walking through the market streets of Xi'an, I looked up and was shocked, thinking I could see the stars despite light pollution. The specks of light turned out to be little bubbles, blown by a child on the roof of a neighboring building. I love the way the bubbles absorbed the light from below, while also standing out against the hazy and humid night sky.
