Captivating Photos Show Trees Growing In The Middle Of Busy Hong Kong
These amazing pictures show trees growing in the middle of Hong Kong's busiest district.
French photographer Romain Jacquet-Lagreze shot the eye-catching photo series, entitled Wild Concrete, in the Mong Kok area of the city.
The images from Wild Concrete were published in a book released last month. (May 17, 2014)
Romain says the series is about the resilience of nature in an urban environment.
Focusing solely on the phenomena of trees sprouting from residential buildings, Wild Concrete compares the living conditions between plants and humans both growing in harsh surroundings.
Romain explains: "In this series the trees share the same exceptional qualities as their human counterparts: perseverance, diligence, and independence."
The photographer came across the wild trees by chance while he was shooting in the area.
He says: "Mong Kok, the most busy and crowded district of Hong Kong, and probably in the world. I was so amazed that such a tree could manage to grow and thrive on such an unlikely location. I found it very symbolic to see how it created its own home among the residential buildings where people are living.
"This place is so dense that there is not much space for greenery. This tree invited itself in here, a bit like if it was challenging the whole city."
The tree's existence made him curious if there might be any other trees growing in the middle of the busy city.
"So I began to look for them and that is how the series started," he says.
Romain believes Hong Kong is the perfect combination of a dense city with easy-access to relaxing getaways such as beaches and small islands.
"From a more personal point of view, what I love most is the visual identity of the city, it's very graphic and it gives me ...
