We're pretty crazy about Greg Girard, whose pictures of Shenzen accompany Adam Matthews's story in this issue. After a decade based in Hong Kong, Girard moved to Shanghai in 1998 and has been documenting the mainland's dizzying changes ever since. His book "Phantom Shanghai" was one of our favorite publications of last year. Images from that project can be seen in this pdf and online here; an interview with Girard is here. A wide selection of Girard's personal and commercial work covering China can also be found at www.greggirard.com.
