Xue Shijie takes photos at Zhongshan Road in Xiamen, southeast China's Fujian Province, Aug. 16, 2017. The 30-year-old Xue is a senior Xiamen file photo collector. Ten years ago, he came to Xiamen and started to take photos of the city's development in his spare time. In 2011, Xue saw the city's file photos on the internet by accident. He began to attend online auctions and bought them from other collectors. The Shanghang man has collected more than 4,000 file photos of the coastal city. Apart from photo collection, Xue also does researches on Xiamen's development by comparison between new and file photos and shares them on social media. (Xinhua/Jiang Kehong)
