繼2014至2016年後，攝影歷史學者、策展人黎健強再度與光影作坊合作，於今年5月開展「歷史的照片．照片的歷史」展覽系列，希望和觀眾一起用歷史角度來看香港的攝影和變遷。
近兩年離開香港的攝影人為數不少，今年以「無論我去到那方：離散者的最後香港影像」為題，由黎健強及資深攝影人楊德銘合作，邀請在2019-23年間離開香港的攝影朋友提供他們最後的香港影像展出：一方面表達了各人自己的情懷，另一方面也成為一個集體的告別式，所以是極具歷史意義的展覽。製作團隊將三十一位參與展覽的攝影人的作品，打印成相近大小的展品，並排陳列於光影作坊的牆壁之上。
黎健強提到，展覽的名字是取自1984年的香港電影《貓頭鷹與小飛象》的主題曲《誰能明白我》中的一句歌詞。歌詞裡追尋理想過程的孤單和信念，與離港的攝影人所選取的作品，兩者所透靈的心情默默地互相呼應。正如黎所說：「照片中或多或少都可以見到一些離愁別緒，在我來說，也希望大家可以在新的家園裡生活愉快，同時發揮著香港人的精神和志氣。」

Following the success of the first series of exhibitions in 2014-2016, photography historian Edwin LAI works again with Lumenvisum for the second series of "Photographs of History, History of Photographs" exhibitions, commencing from 2023. Just like the first series, the aim is to introduce a historical perspective in the looking of Hong Kong photographs.
In view of the considerable number of photographers leaving Hong Kong over the last two years, the new series of "Photographs of History, History of Photographs" opens with an exhibition ─ that is, the fourth exhibition in the whole series ─ respecting this recent development, titled 'Leaving on a Jet Plane: Final Images of Hong Kong by Photographers who have emigrated recently'. Edwin LAI has invited veteran Hong Kong photojournalist Paul YEUNG to join him as co-curator for this project: the two of them contacted those photographers who have departed during 2019-23, for their final photographic glimpses of Hong Kong. Consequently, this exhibition is a showcase of the photographers' individual emotions or personal moments, at the same time a formal occasion of collective farewell.
There are altogether thirty-one photographers who have joined the exhibition. Their works are printed in roughly the same size for display on the walls of Lumenvisum.
