Franky Lau is a Hong Kong-based photographer and photo journalist. Though born in Hong Kong, Lau finds Sichuan and Xinjiang the most beautiful regions of China. He is planning his sixth trip to Xinjiang in 2009. Recently, Lau puts more emphasis on local photography: Tai O's village life, Stanley's exotic mixture of East and West, Cheung Chau's dramatic contrasts of present and past, and the bygone Star Ferry Pier, da pai dong, smelly tofu ...  all attract his attention. He is determined to capture history and memories through images. While photography speaks for Lau, he also enjoys writing and hopes that one day he will publish a collection of photography and texts.
