A retaining wall, Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong

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...

very cool -- does it mean something? love the textures of the roots as they sweep down the wall! a wonderful graphic, those tiles! (concrete blocks?)

Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom

A pleasing image, a simple design. Does it have a purpose ?

@Observing: Apart from the aesthetical or decorative purpose, I really couldn't think of any practical functions they might have... Thanks.:-)
