Fog and mist in Hong Kong
Edward Tin: ‘When warm winds bring the promise of spring from the southern ocean, sea fog anchors around Hong Kong’s harbours. This photo captured the stunning view of the fog at the Kwai Chung Container Terminal. Only the cranes of the container ships and the twin towers of the Stonecutters Bridge are visible through the swirling mist.’

Scared of Heights
Albert Dros: ‘Taken from the highest residential building in Asia: the Zenith in Busan. This was taken with official permission (which took me months to get) and safety measures were taken. I had to hang myself over the edge to get this shot. Not for the faint of heart! But when you’re at a height like this, the world below you just seems different. It takes away the fear one would normally have, and gives a sense of peace instead.’

Motherboard City
Ho Lam Cheng: ‘Hong Kong has one of the highest population densities in the world. This city is full of sky-high buildings, yet surrounded by lots of mountains. If you go up to the top, you will see a motherboard like structural design of the whole city. The buildings seem like computer servers, whereas the main roads are the connecting cables of different servers. People are like data, transferring from one side to another side.’

Walled City #08
Andy Yeung: ‘The Kowloon Walled City was once the densest place on Earth, with hundreds of houses stacked on top of each other enclosed in the centre of the structure. This notorious city was finally demolished in 1990s. However, if you look hard enough, part of it still exists in many current high-density housing.’
