Hong Kong 2007 - Part 26 (Sunny Weekend)

Yet Another Sunny Day in Hong Kong

Accompanying Music
Video Link


1. Tsim Sha Tsui offers some very dense contrasts.


2. Street beautification






5. Cruise passengers and their dough.


6. The standard shots.










11. Too bad the sails were lowered by the time this reached my eye-level.












17. Trying to frame both Highcliff & Summit.












23. Seeing all the way to East Kowloon.












29. Hanging around in East Tsim Sha Tsui, home to many hotels and not-so-tall buildings.














36. This giant is being undressed.

2IFC shatters the scale of the island, seen from the TST promenade.
It's almost as if the tower was on the other side of the water.

It's amazing isn't it. So much of Hong Kong's architecture looks like shit by itself, but it all somehow is overcome when lumped together, making for one of the most fascinating cities in the world, despite it all.

very nice

I love how all of the buildings have company names and logos on top of them.

I also love the man made beauty mixed with natural beauty.
