one day in my life
working late...
Posted by hugo poon (hong kong, Hong Kong) on 18 May 2009 in Documentary & Street and Portfolio.
One of the oldest fruit stores in my neighbourhood and a recently opened chain property broker... and both are working late.
Lyttelton Road, Hong Kong
This is a little series of some local stores and restaurants in my neighbourhood. Don't know why, I have always been drawn to small businesses; and it's particularly delightful to find them doing fine under the attack of the financial tsunami...
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...
