With AI mapping, a prevalent pastime nowadays, you can get your dreamy landscape photo just by inputting a command. However, Hong Kong landscape photographer Kelvin Yuen Chun-yip still insists on using the most traditional method to go up the mountains, venture into uninhabited areas, exploring areas that even local tour guides believe are paths to nowhere.

On Jan. 12, 2024, Mr. Yuen received a generous gift from God during his vacation. He accidentally photographed the fairy tale scene of his dreams - the snowy full-frontal view of Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany. This hard-earned photo is the result of a wish he made eight years ago.
