204 Sax on the terrace

I was walking down the mall in Nanjing Rd Shanghai and heard Lenny G saxophone music from above my head. Many people in the street were looking up to what I thought was a big tv screen. Then I saw the man playing his saxophone from the terrace above. I stopped and snapped a few quick photos.

I like the lighting on the shop owners face and the blurred out bottles in the background.
She is surrounded by her tools of the trade, phone cash register and modern screen, but the rest of the place hasn't changed in a hundred years or more.

Nonya cuisine is a mix of Malay and Chinese food. This very small restaurant in the back streets of Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown area looks like it hasn't changed in a hundred years. The old photos on the wall and traditional furnishings suited an antique look for this photo.
