‘Woh Yuhng’ by Lam Yik Fei — Final 24 Hours on Kickstarter

The award-winning photographer Lam Yik Fei has captured some of the most riveting images of the Hong Kong protests thus far. Here’s one of my favourites:

See also his wry comment under “Risks and challenges”:

The risk for backers is trivial and low. […] After all, the most risky and challenging part — photographing under tear gas and bullets — has been completed already.

Unfortunately, it looks like things are about to get a whole lot riskier. All the more reason to back this project while you can.

UPDATE: Missed the Kickstarter campaign? Check out Lam’s photo essay in the New York Times. You’ll thank me later.
