Victoria Harbour & the CBD, Hong Kong... a view from Tsim Sha Tsui.
If you're interested, more pics of the harbour can be found here.:-) http://www.pbase.com/hpicckcy/the_harbour__the_ferry
I do not regard myself as a photographer... I'm just a guy who enjoys capturing all the memorable scenes that I encounter in my life, my everyday life, with whatever photo machine I've got. Perhaps, it's like a traveller hoping to record his memorable journey, but in my case, it's the journey of my life ...
In terms of photography, I'm trying to preserve the moments as my eyes see "something" and my heart feels it too. As such, I seldom feel interested in planned, arranged or manipulated photographs...

This is no less great than yesterday...you just spoilt me by showing the mono first...which I favour by the smallest margin.

@Ted: Thank you Ted!! Personally, I find it a dilemma to choose between the two - I like the subtle beauty of the b&w but the city splendor and cloud formation of the colour version are quite appealing... Decided to keep them and show them both - a happy dilemma.:-)
Have a great Sunday! Hugo
In colors, it's beautiful too ! The perspective is amazing !

@Vink: Thank you Vink!! it's quite a vantage to view the CBD and the harbour. I only managed to get there through the help of a friend who arrived some two hours before the sunset. It's amazing how the place was crowded with people in the evening, local and tourist...
Cheers, Hugo
Great night shot!
