Looking Up In Hong Kong: The Overwhelming Symmetry Of This Metropolis’ Highrises

Peter Stewart, a travel photographer based in Australia, has found a great way to make Hong Kong’s masses of repetitive high-rise apartment buildings interesting again. His “Stacked – Hong Kong” architectural photography series seeks out some of the most repetitive sights in Hong Kong and turns them into hypnotizing compositions.

“All it takes really is a keen eye for finding the beauty in the monotonous,” Stewart told the Creators Project – “The everyday structures that we often fail to appreciate.” He also explained that night-time was the best time to gain access to certain spaces without human interference. Stewart shot most of this series using a Canon EOS 5D Mark II.
