In a departure from the well-trodden tourist panoramas, photographer Mikko Takkunen's latest book, Hong Kong, unveils a Hong Kong bathed in a new light. Imagine towering skyscrapers not as imposing steel and glass giants, but as vibrant backdrops touched by the golden hues of the midday sun.
Takkunen draws inspiration from the masters of mid-century street photography, with echoes of Saul Leiter's evocative use of color and light. However, this is not a mere homage – Takkunen injects his own distinctive and contemporary voice.
