Sunset over Hong Kong
No touch up. Just timing and framing to catch this boat, the Luna Aqua, passing by the Avenue of Stars on Kowloon.

Star Ferry
The famous old ferries that ply between Kowloon and Hong Kong island.

The view from Victoria Peak at night
Learning points: A panorama of 2 shots, I used a bean bag to keep the camera steady on a binocular post meant for tourists on top of The Peak's viewing gallery. Made sure to use only ISO100 for noise, the live view to ensure focus, and to review to ensure sharpness.

O'Brien St
The distinctive taxis of HK, which were ubiquitous. Taken from a 2nd story pedestrian walkway, the 'bean bag' I mentioned earlier is actually rice in a ziplock bag which I brought from home - a useful tip I read. Worked like a charm and I didn't need a tripod at all.

Very lovely shots Chris! I really love "Sunset over Hong Kong", very good moment. And that's a good idea, rice beanbag..
ohya, maybe you should link Chris Sees to the right side of this blog too, so it doesn't get lost? Just a suggestion.
Thanks!
Still need time/energy to do up the links on the right.. currently thinking how I should move forward with the blog & photoblog.
Suggestion: This blog to document your personal trips, reflections, experiences, landmarks. Whereas, your photoblog will be specifically for discussing pictures, technical reflections and explanations. The photos found in both will most likely differ slightly, with few cross-overs.
