Stunning drone photography of Hong Kong attracts global attention
Hong Kong photographer Andy Yeung has taken spectacular shots high above his home city, capturing global attention with the results
In just five images Hong Kong-based photographer Andy Yeung manages to capture the lives of millions of people in Sheung Wan, Wan Chai and Sham Shui Po, from angles never-before seen online or in print.
His photo taken high above Sheung Wan has been selected as this month’s Editor’s Choice for the renowned PetaPixel website, a photography blog attracting hundreds of thousands of followers around the world.
The photo comes from Yeung’s Urban Jungle photo series, which involved the use of a drone over a period of two months, capturing scenes of Hong Kong’s immensely busy districts.
“I wanted to use a special angle to show how people can live in the world’s most densely populated city, Hong Kong,” he said in response to questions emailed by scmp.com.
