Barriers - Lam - Mong Kok / Hong Kong (Mon 09 Jul 2012)

Barriers - Lam - Mong Kok / Hong Kong (Mon 09 Jul 2012)

This photo has surprised me after printing on an A3 sheet of paper. It has everything I like in a photo - colour, shadows, lines and an interesting lighting effect. In the late afternoon sun, the print has an amazing luminous about it that I have rarely seen in my photos.

Praying Mantis and Graffiti - Mong Kok / Hong Kong (Mon 02 Jul 2012)

Praying Mantis (*) - Mong Kok / Hong Kong (Mon 02 Jul 2012)

Graffiti - Mong Kok / Hong Kong (Mon 02 Jul 2012)

These two photos seem to go together. They were taken close together and in the same block. They seemed to reflect the unique and local character (and lines) of Hong Kong.

Even the Praying Mantis (*) and graffiti have a Chinese characteristic to them.

The Praying Mantis (*) was only 2cm long but was not shy and very protective of his territory. Amazing self-confidence in it's own abilities.

I am in there somewhere with my trusty G10.

Love the almost indistinguishable and unrecognisable layers in this one.

Reflection in passing bus window as we were waiting to cross the busy street. Only a block away from where we stayed on the way to Macau in Sep 2006.
