An old district in Hong Kong
-
I walked around with my elder brother in an old district in Hong Kong called “Sheung Wan” to take photos today.
Welcome any comment :)
Interesting photos, I especially like the ones with people in them going about their daily business. These create more atmosphere.
Hong Kong seems to be so full of interesting places, I was there on holiday recently, I’m sure I’ll be back soon.
If I was to pick a favourite it might be the Taxi + Wing Po.. sign, with the bamboo scaffolding, (although it doesn’t have any person in it)
Next would be the last one, the painting shop.Martin
This is a really great series…..really enjoyed looking at these, well done.
I’d agree with Martin, the Wing Po shot is very impressive. The shot confuses me a little, Is the pavement elevated? it looks like two photos sewn together.
I also like the first three, probably the second one stands out, colour of the teeshirts looks very well, its a small but important feature of the shot.
The only ones I wouldn’t fancy are the two of the railings.
Am surprised this series hasn’t received more commentary.
Yes, great set, lovely textures everywhere-
all interesting, and perhaps because the ordinaryness is so extraordinary from this perspective-One question though, is the greenish cast intentional?

Hi Bookworm,
I have looked at these a few times and there is much to view.
Sometime it takes a while for all the images to download.
Oh the joys of our broadband system. :)They are a most interesting set of images and as has been said
enjoyable viewing.Sometimes I think a little text can help me to enjoy images like
this even more but even without text they are very good.John.
Happy to have your comments~
Martin, welcome to HK again for the next time you visit there~ in fact, I will go to Dublin in early Aug as I have joined a one-year Ireland Working Holiday Visa~ Maybe we could take photos together later~
Liam2673, the pavement of the Wing Po shot is really elevated as there is a staircase in the middle.
jb7, the greenish cast is intentional. In fact, that was bit sunny day and the orginal photos are quite warm style. I tuned into a bit “lomo” style for matching the old buildings feeling. Happy that you like it.
John, I put too much photos in one post this time and yes, I should write a little text for that…Between, I am really happy for joining this forum as I receive you all wholehearted comments everytime I post my photos here~
Hi Bookworm
Do you have any photos from ‘mainland’ China, from Shenzen or Guangzhou for example? Would be delighted to see them.
Also if you have any others from Hong Kong. I was there a few years ago, its an interesting city, very busy.
