Selected photographs will be professionally printed and exhibited during HKU Information Day 2026 on October 24, 2026 at the SFM booth (5/F, Chong Yuet Ming Cultural Centre).

Theme: "Smart City, Human Stories"
Capture how people live, work, and connect in modern Hong Kong. We are looking for authentic visual stories of daily life navigating the city. This could be about embracing innovation, preserving timeless human traditions, or finding a balance between the two.
