Yiu Chi Wing Charles 姚志榮
姚志榮，攝影愛好者，2018國家地理會德豐香港攝影大賽城市組第二名。他的作品蘊含著深層的意義：在城市急速的發展下，舊區不停改變，甚至已被拆卸得面目全非。其中，人與人之間的愛就像這月光一樣，歷久不衰，不變不息。在這舊街小巷中，看到的除了是遠處經濟繁榮的建設外，還有天上的圓月及人與人的愛。有一種很強烈的對比及感覺，天不變，情永在。
Yiu Chi Wing Charles, Photographer, City category 1st runner up. City development means gentrification. While some old neighbourhoods didn’t survive, the sentiments did. Locals still see the same moon; they still found love under new, towering buildings. Some things go, some things stay. The city changes, but sentiments remain.
