PUBLISHED BOOKS
ANTHONY LEWIS
2021
A collection of my favourite images from 2021. This was definitely the jack of all trades type of year for my photography. In this book, you will find a collection of street, landscape, wildlife and panoramic images. In total, I managed to add 41 photos to my portfolio this year, though I'm not sure if these would make their way into others. I enjoyed the journey and making them at least and that's generally what photography is all about, isn't it?
Hong Kong
SAVOUR
A whirlwind tour of Hong Kong's unique and numerous street-level restaurants. From the buzzing metropolis of Hong Kong island to the densely packed alleys and roads of Kowloon. Take a look at one of the major influences in Hong Kong society.
Hong Kong
URBAN SOLITUDE
Urban Solitude represents a personal journey exploring the irony of solitude in such an urban and fast-paced environment. A place called home by many and a home to many without a place. The bubble which people form around themselves shields them from the energetic and competitive landscape that can overwhelm every sense of the body. Despite Hong Kong's urban density, there are gaps in time and space where the return to solitude is carried out via modern means. Technology combined with the distracted eye is a part of the city's soul and one that can consume the already initiated folk that now call this place home. With the absence of conversation and cultural comforts, the mind slowly loses focus on what it means to be a part of something bigger than the self. Eventually, you are consumed by the streets and begin to feel a part of their energy. Solitude can co-exist with being another face in the arteries of the pulsating streets. Finding solitude can sometimes be a task that was never undertaken but the gateway to another form of expression. This urban odyssey reflects the irony of solitude.
NEW ZEALAND
SOUTH ISLAND
Having the opportunity to travel and photograph New Zealand's south island has been a dream of mine for the last two years and most likely the dream of other enthusiastic landscape photographers the world over. After living in the bustling metropolis of Hong Kong for the past three years it was finally time to exhale and explore the wide-open spaces of this far away land set under southern skies. It has been my ambition for some time to progress my landscape photography which has been especially difficult to do in Hong Kong.
The journey to capture the best this land had to offer began in Christchurch on the south island's east coast, from there we quickly picked up our cosy albeit small camper van and immediately headed inland to the Mackenzie district where we spent our first evening and night camped at Lake Tekapo. At every bend and hilltop along the road there were countless vistas and sights that begged to be photographed, driving times between places were always double than that were planned and very right so given the splendid beauty of this land.
