Scenic/View TsimShaTsuiJust a photo to show you the Victoria Harbor on a busy day. This photo was taken from Central (HK island) looking towards Tsimshatsui and western Kowloon. Lots of activities going on with the hydrofoil, barges, ferry, a couple of small boats and even two helicopters, and just behind that giant advertisement of mooncake is a cruise ship at the terminal.
Really nice shot. What I like is the billboard right in front with that guy’s funny face. It adds something else to the picture even

Memories! I stayed in the Hyatt (I think) right on the harbour back in 2000 - I loved it, the Peak and the Star Ferries I loved (I was only there for 2 days!)
Very cool shot…

and to curly, I do bring my camera along quite often, and since HK is a small place, we get quite different things by walking just a short distance.
btw, for your information, mooncake is yummy but very fattening.

September 25th, 2006, at 10:25 pm #That was a great photo! I love it, and mostly due to the helicopters. I have a weakness for things flying.
