This photographer captured fleeting moments in black and white. In "China, 1958," he framed a split second—an old man’s stride, a child’s reach—so precisely it still feels alive today. He worked in the mid-20th century, when cameras became light enough to carry everywhere, turning sidewalks into studios. See how his picture holds the street’s quiet energy. Tap "China, 1958" to take a closer look.
