To appreciate the iconic harbour, one of the best ways is to take ferries from one promenade to another. Very different from everything else, the ferry has its own pace and never attempt to catch-up. During the ride is a perfect opportunity to slow down, greet a passenger or daydream, out looking into this cityscape with mixture of old and new architecture. Being 120-year-old, this experience itself is a piece of Hong Kong’s history.

要欣賞標誌性的香港維多利亞港,最好的方法之一是乘搭渡輪。 渡輪有別於其他一切,有自己的步調,從不試圖追趕。 渡輪旅程是一個絕佳的機會,可以放慢腳步,接觸其他乘客或做白日夢,欣賞這個以新舊建築融合為一的城市風光。 這種體驗已有120年曆史,本身就是香港歷史的一部分。

Wong Wei Him (b.1975) is a street photographer and an architect based in Hong Kong. "At first, I used camera to research on peculiar spaces and exquisite design details as inspirations for my design projects. It then becomes a habit that I bring my camera with me wherever I go. When I see anything that intrigues or touches me, I photograph it. It was until I came across Magnum photographer Elliott Erwitt and Japanese street photographer Shin Noguchi, so particular the angle they reflect culture and humanity via their photos, I decided to do street photography and ever since photography has turned into one of my passions."

王懷謙(b.1975),建築師,於2017年開始街頭攝影。 起初,攝影是為紀錄空間和建築細節,為設計找尋靈感。 不論到哪裡,我都會隨身攜帶相機。 當看到引起興趣或觸動我的事物時,會以照片作紀錄。直到我遇上瑪格蘭(Magnum)攝影師 Elliott Erwitt 和 日本街頭 / 紀實攝影師 Shin Noguchi 的作品,看到他們通過照片反映文化及生活,我決定以街頭攝影作為體驗生活的一種方式。
