Similar to Greek photographer Anthimos Ntagkas, Edas Wong likes to play in the streets with a camera. Only, Wong primarily does it on the other side of the world — Hong Kong.
His playful shots cleverly utilize both the foreground and background. In many cases, it's even hard to tell which of them is the cornerstone of the image; whether it's a man in front of a poster that gives him a Goku haircut or someone walking with shoes that look just like the fish painted on the ground, the dance between the two is often what makes the image.

Wong started dabbling in street photography in 2012. "The reason why I chose this particular type of photography as opposed to any other is quite simple, actually," he told Bored Panda. "I didn't need to learn an advanced technique or have expensive gear; just my small camera. Ideal for a beginner."
Wong approaches the whole process as a somewhat meditative experience. "In order to take a memorable street photo, I try to empty my mind as much as possible and really concentrate on the street itself."
Being present and immersing himself in the area allows Wong to spot even the smallest details and capture events as they unfold, such that cannot be foreseen and take place in only a split second.
"When I am shooting, it's all instinctual, I do not plan my shots," Wong said. "I just go out there and enjoy everything around me."

Dear Grace Galan, I can explain. It was a hot August day in Georgia ,tensions as high as the tempature outside, when they saw each other across the counter.Girlfriend, can you believe that girl found a way to turn it into something vulgar with a piece of grapefruit? I declare only she could have made it look so indecent just having a cool beverage on a hot August day in Georgia.

Hark, the rubbish speaketh! Good sir/madam, thou hast angered me, yea, angered me to the point of madness. Leavest thou the writers alone, and ceasest thy activities at a troll at once. Forsooth, I wouldst strike thee, even as a knight striketh his foe upon the jousting stand, but alas, this screen blocketh my path. Consider thyself warned, knave, and shouldst we meet again, prepare to do battle, upon my word as a king.
