A Chinese worker reads a book as he lay on a bed in a busy street, late night in Beijing Sunday, July 13, 2008. Nighttime in Beijing reveals a city that is trendy and cosmopolitan, though many parts of the city still retain their traditional character.

This didn't make The Week in Pictures, but I think its very nicely shot as well being striking for its content. Most of the Olympic construction is being done by migrant workers and I've seen pictures of them sleeping in various places, but I like this one the best.
