EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the Aqua Luna II junk boat gracefully glides through the tranquil waters of Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour at dusk. Taken on April 22,2017, during the ship's inaugural public sailing, this image perfectly captures the essence of Hong Kong's maritime lifestyle and booming tourism industry. The Aqua Luna II is a magnificent sight to behold as it showcases traditional Chinese craftsmanship in its wooden structure. With a length of 29 meters and an impressive capacity to accommodate 80 passengers, it proudly stands as the largest wooden Chinese junk boat sailing in Hong Kong waters. As nightfall descends upon Victoria Harbour, the boat becomes illuminated by soft lights that cast a warm glow across its elegant silhouette. The juxtaposition between ancient traditions and modernity is beautifully portrayed in this photograph. This snapshot not only highlights the beauty of Hong Kong's iconic skyline but also symbolizes the city's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that amidst skyscrapers and bustling streets lies a deep-rooted connection to its maritime past. Photographer Tengku Bahar skillfully captures this moment with his lens, showcasing his talent for capturing offbeat yet visually striking images. This print from Agence France-Presse (AFP) invites viewers to embark on their own journey through time and experience the charm of Hong Kong's maritime lifestyle firsthand.
