Edith Willumsen carried a tiny camera everywhere, snapping black-and-white street scenes like a shy spy. She framed doorways and laundry lines the way a poet chooses words—nothing flashy, just the quiet rhythm of daily life. One photograph shows a Copenhagen alley at dawn, two bicycles leaning against a brick wall; the shadows stretch long and thin, like the city waking up slowly. Slide to the right in Gallery Tiles to see that one.
