Half-Scottish half-Chinese photographer Liam Wong likes to “capture moments after midnight and turn them into the surreal”. He works as a video game art director, and tries to channel in his photos his “love for video games, film, science fiction, and cyberpunk”.

And turning a city into a cyberpunk scenario is exactly what he did with the pictures of his “Tokyo Nights” series, which show Japan’s capital bathed in bright neon lights as if it had just stepped out of one of the movies Wong draws inspiration from, Blade Runner, Akira, Ghost in the Shell.

See his works in the gallery down here and you can check his Instagram for more here.
