"delay no more???!"

When our minibus passed by this trendy retail mall under decoration, all passengers were stunned. Well you might not understand, but the pronunciation of these words are so close to "fu_k your mother" in Chinese (Cantonese). Obviously, this mall had chosen these provocative words intentionally; the mall was eventually named "Delay No Mall"! Vulgar or humorous? I have the question but don't have an answer...

I do not regard myself as a photographer. I'm merely a guy who enjoys capturing all the memorable scenes that I encounter in my everyday life. Perhaps, it's like a traveller hoping to record his memorable journey, but in my case, it's the journey of my life ... If I can record my encounters in such a way that they leave an image on the mind of myself and other viewers, it's a tremendous joy and some accomplishment...
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...
