About the book Big Bamboo is a fine art photography book which takes a unique look at life in our unmistakable home city of Hong Kong. Finished to the very highest quality this is a book that every resident, visitor and lover of the city must have.
Big Bamboo is a distillation of local photographer, William Furniss’ 12-year love affair with Hong Kong. Creating atmospheric and inspired new angles of Hong Kong in colour and black and white, William photographs with the mission of putting the viewer in touch with the diverse architecture, breathtaking countryside and distinctive people that make Hong Kong the unforgettable city that it is.
A Foreword by Chris Patten provides an interesting introduction to this work.
