[Jasper James](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jasper-sneaker) has created these beautiful images entitled 'People and Places.' The images are taken in China and they represent various men and women and how they reflect on their cities.

The images are visually dynamic, demonstrating a juxtaposition between the individual and the big city's buildings behind them. I love the [silhouetted shadows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightware-series) which light up a certain area of the city center. It creates a connection between the subject, the hustle and bustle and the lonely sensation of a big city. It's apparent through this series that Jasper James is a [talented photographer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1).
