Small red flags with yellow stars hang diagonally among sunlit green leaves. A string of bulbs follows the line; the lower part of the view falls into shade.
Photography by Lu Heng

The flags run from the darker lower left toward the bright upper right. Yellow stars show on the nearer red surfaces, and small bulbs hang along the same line.

Behind them, the leaves break the light into many separate patches. The line of flags gives the eye a single route through that scattered green.
