Michael Wolf photo exhibit may breach privacy law, expert warns

Joanna Chiu reports:

Legal concerns have been raised that award-winning German photographer Michael Wolf violated the privacy of Hong Kong residents with his new series, “Window Watching”, in which he used a telephoto zoom lens to photograph people through their high-rise apartment windows.
