這期間拍攝了約五十戶家庭，當中挑選了十幅作參賽之用。
這套照片攝於08年3月至5月的牛頭角下邨。
牛頭角邨是香港僅存的未重建前徙置屋邨，
預計會於2009年1月清拆，
成為最後一期公屋重建計劃屋邨。
於六、七十年代，屋邨家庭都會門戶大開，除了讓家中散散熱，
更方便了鄰里間的互相照應。現在，大多數人都會把門戶關上，
鄰里少了溝通，甚至不知隔鄰住的是何許人。
＜門後＞嘗試走進屋內，看看門後人們生活的情況，
更讓大家思考徙置屋邨的居民對陌生的人、事、物闖進其個人空間的所感。
＜Behind Closed Doors＞ is a photo series which documented
the lives and living conditions of the people living in squatters in Hong Kong.
This series covers around 50 households, among them,
ten pictures were chosen for the competition.
This series was shot between March and May 2008
in Lower Ngau Tau Kok Estate. Ngau Tau Kok Estate
is the remains of the squatters that have not yet been redeveloped.
Its clearance is planned to proceed in January 2009 which
symbolizes the last phase of redevelopment of public housing estate.
During 60s and 70s, households used to open their front door for
better ventilation and closer relationship among neighborhood.
Nowadays, people mostly shut their doors at home which in
a great extent alienates the relationship among neighbors.
＜Behind Closed Doors＞ tried to explore how people in squatters
are living by stepping into their houses. It also leaves the audience
an issue of how people in squatters think towards the intrusion
of foreign people and foreign environment.
