Water separates the skylines of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. Look beyond the tallest buildings to the movement and reflections between them.

Victoria Harbour gives Hong Kong two facing urban shores: northern Hong Kong Island and southern Kowloon. Its ferries and waterfronts make the water part of the city’s daily connections, as well as a subject for photographs. Instead of counting towers, choose one reflection or moving vessel to follow with your eyes. Comparing a still skyline with the changing surface below can open a conversation about how each of you notices a busy city.
