since relocating to hong kong, french fine art photographer romain jacquet-lagrèze has spent countless hours documenting the quirks, beauty, and complexity of his adopted city. ‘the blue moment’ is an architectural series captured in the day’s final moments, before dusk settles over the metropolis. enveloped in a deep blue blanket, artificial and natural light combine to form a mystical environment. ‘the blue moment’ shows hong kong as it is; a high-density urban atmosphere, yet one that is no less immune to nature’s omni-present influence.
