The night and the city

Fujifilm X100S, 1/25s @ f/2, iso 3200
This year, save for 2 weeks in Laos, I did not travel that much. But I still have a lot of pictures from the previous winter which were not processed to their full potential. The Hong Kong skyline seen from the mainland is one of them.

Chopsticks

Fujifilm X100s, 125s @ f/4.0, iso 1000
Something else entirely. Most (if not all) of my pictures are either landscapes, cityscapes or street photography. But sometimes everyday objects arranged carefully for display make a "landscape" you cannot miss with your camera.

And for the record: I love chopsticks. Bamboo chopsticks. Not those reusable plastic counterfeits. Seeing such a variety was a pleasure to the eye and a reminder of well deserved tom yum.

Green escape

Three posts with temples in a row? Time to return to Hong Kong then!

After a week of hard work, after a busy Saturday night (don't ask) there is hardly a better place to rest your tired eyes and body than Hong Kong Park. You can sit on a bench, watch fish and turtles, go to  the aviary and watch birds or go to the tai chi court and watch Chinese people trying to catch imaginary spiders.

5am quiet in Hong Kong

Fujifilm X100s, 1/40s @ f/2.0, iso 3200
I love this picture, because it is so unusual to see an empty street in Hong Kong. Well, maybe you can do it on every night, but you need to be up very early (or not go to bed at all).
