Hong Kong

I spent 5 days in Hong Kong this month. A mecca for street photography, and to keep things interesting I've experimented a bit with longer shutter speeds - something I rarely do - both handheld and with a small table tripod on fences etc.

WOW! great shots, it was a pleasure to look through your series. #1, #3, and #7 really stand out in particular

These are exceptional Kevin. You really brought Hong Kong to life. The seventh one is my favorite. Your experiment in longer shutter speed certainly paid off.

Wow! Incredible series. If I had to pick a few that stood out I would say 1, 2 and 5, and I just love the man walking up the steps too. I really enjoyed these... thanks!

Thanks everyone : )

I must say I'm quite surprised many seem to pick the 7th as their favorite.

Great stuff from you, Kevin - as usual. I like 'em all, but I'm also drawn to number 7 - I think it's the stark contrast between the prosaic look of the parking garage vs the glitter of the skyline in the distance - stark reality vs. a dream. But, hey, what do I know?
