Taipei Nighthawks series

Whenever I come home late, I pass by this noodle shop. They have closed for the night only a few minutes before I pass by. He is always squatting there in this position, checking something on his smartphone, and the last light from the shop illuminates his white T-shirt.

This is a black-and-white photo of a quiet nighttime street scene, likely in Taipei. The photo has a moody, cinematic atmosphere, with strong contrasts of light and shadow.

In the center of the image is a small food stall or shop. The upper half of the shop is brightly lit from inside, illuminating a counter with packaged goods or snacks neatly arranged in rows. Above the counter hangs a short curtain with Chinese writing, suggesting the name and type of business—possibly a snack or specialty shop.

In front of the shop, in the dim light of the street, a person is sitting on the ground, hunched slightly, looking at a smartphone. The glow of the screen faintly lights their face. They appear to be taking a break or waiting, and they seem relaxed but slightly weary.

To the right, a traffic cone and a large trash bin are placed near the sidewalk. The surroundings are framed by closed shutters, tiled walls, and some faded posters or wall graphics. The street is quiet, empty of traffic or people except for the lone figure. The image captures a moment of solitude, everyday life, and calm urban stillness.
