This is a street in Wuhan, which was closed in February. The street is very empty and there are almost no pedestrians. This is an old woman who sells fruit on the street, but no one cares about it because of the impact of the epidemic. A sad look, and a lot of vicissitudes in her face. I think this photo touched me very much, this is just a microcosm of the negative impact of this epidemic on ordinary people all over the world. I hope this epidemic can quickly pass over to let ordinary people live a normal life.

Who originally created this object? (If you created this object, such as photo, then put "self" here.)
