Ceci Wu

Soaring high rises, packed eateries, and busy market places is what comes to mind when one thinks of Hong Kong. However, in between the hustle and bustle, there are pockets of nature, hiking trails within and without the city center. These lush oases of green provide a space in which to take a deep breath and rest from the, at times, overwhelming metropolis.

Ceci Wu was photographed by Vincent Ip in the Sha Tin district of her native Hong Kong. Avoiding the Hong Kong stereotypical neon lights and busy streets the city if known for, the often overlooked nature was chosen as setting for the shot.
