A man looks at the protesters around him as they block the main street to the financial Central district, outside the government headquarters in Hong Kong, September 30, 2014.
As protests continue to rage and grow in Hong Kong, images of massive crowds demanding free and open elections are everywhere.
But it's easy to forget that those crowds are made up of individuals, each with their own opinions, passions, and reasons for being there.
Reuters photographer Bobby Yip decided to find more about the people who make up these gigantic demonstrations. What he found was a cross section of modern Hong Kong, individuals who are different on paper but share in common goals.
