Words from National Geographic Traveller: New book reveals unexpected sides to the region
Since moving to Hong Kong over a decade ago, British photographer Derry Ainsworth has set about capturing the unique energy of his adopted home. The results are revealed in his 190-page book Highs & Lows, a portrait of
'its vibrancy, its quirks, its charm'. The region is shown in all its complexity: from the densely packed skyscrapers and frenetic streets of Hong Kong Island to more intimate moments of local life, such as this shot of a mother and child on the Choi Hung (Rainbow) Estate in Kowloon.
