Photobook / Masataka Nakano: Shadows

[@lhuhnphotography]

I appreciate being introduced to photographers that I would not normally be exposed to. Thanks!

[@BorutPeterlinPhotography]

Thank you! That's what I am aiming for. For amazing photographers and books that aren't those ten masters of photography that people are talking about time and time again.

These are great. I left Hong Kong just before he took these images. I think he captured the essence of the city quite well. I'll try to find a copy of this book. Thanks for the recommendation.

Absolutely stunning photography. I lived four years in Hong Kong and can recognize many of these places. This brings back so many memories. Are these really from the 90s? Hong Kong looks still just the same, on a rainy night. I need to find this book. Thank you so much for this series of videos. And especially thanks for the ones where you open up your wet plate work. I have learned so much from you. Cannot wait to meet you in one of your wet plate workshops. Cheers!

So many scenes from where I work now, but they don't anything like that any more 🥲

[@BorutPeterlinPhotography]

What do you mean? Hong Kong changed or that this kind of photography is not appreciated anymore?

[@Stop4MotionMakr]

@@BorutPeterlinPhotography I mean the city looks visually completely different now. Like for example at 2:20, I walk by this intersection every day to work. And save for one thing in the photo, everything looks completely different now. All the signboards are gone and replaced with new shiny things, that I think arguably don't look as good.

@@Stop4MotionMakr Strange. I spent some time photographing Hong Kong at night not too long ago and some places seem exactly the same.
