Yesterday (September 12) would have been Leslie Cheung Kwok Wing's 57th birthday. Photographer and friend Wing Shya (Ha Wing Hong) chose this day to release the MISS YOU MUCH Leslie Cheung memorial photo collection. A debut book sale took place at a Tsim Sha Tsui bookstore. Ha Wing Hong said that this photo collection has been in preparation for a year and a half. The first printing was 5,000 copies and each would cost HK$550. The proceeds will be donated to Cheung Kwok Wing's favorite charity organizations like the Children's Cancer Foundation.

80% of the collection were never before seen photos, most were different from the same day release LOVE LESLIE. Ha Wing Hong said that when he was younger he chose photos from a commercial angle, now he would pay more attention to the message before the photos. He revealed that this time he spent two months to choose photos and was reminded of many memories from working with Cheung Kwok Wing on the photo book.
