Belgian photographer Xavier Portela takes viewers on a mesmerizing journey through the vibrant streets of Hong Kong with his stunning “HONG KONG GLOW” photo series. This collection is part of his larger “Glow” project, which captures the urban energy of global cities at night.
Portela’s unique style is a result of a masterful blend of long-exposure photography and post-production color manipulation. He draws inspiration from the glowing palettes of Japanese anime and Chinese manhua, transforming ordinary cityscapes into a surreal world of electric light and motion. Through his lens, the bustling streets, neon signs, and constant flow of city life are not just documented—they are experienced.
“HONG KONG GLOW” is more than just a series of images; it’s an immersive visual representation of the city’s fast-paced, pulsating atmosphere. The vivid and almost-hyperreal quality of his work sets it apart, offering a fresh and unforgettable perspective on urban photography.
