China - Beijing - Looking between the photographs

A man tries to view construction of a new shopping village near Tiananmen Square. The construction site is obscured from by a huge photograph of the Forbidden City and a computer generated image of what the village will look like once it is completed. Large scale photographic prints of this sort have now become a common sight all over Beijing. They are used to cover up building sites from public view and the images usually depict a beautiful natural scene or historic site. (Photo by Gideon Mendel/Corbis via Getty Images)
