It’s time to say Goodbye. 2 years, 731 posts, a lot of fun plus lots of good friends…

I started HKDP two years ago after being away from Hong Kong for a while and found Eric’s Paris Daily Photo by chance. HKDP was either the 13th or 16th (can’t remember for sure) blog in the Daily Photo Family, it was a small and cozy circle then. Now, it has grown into a big community of nearly 500 blogs and I really am sorry that I have to leave.

Today’s is the last daily post of this site and I took this photo at the Po Lin Monastery showing one of the statues making offerings to the Buddha.

I will try to post from time to time but I can’t promise to do it regularly; but I do believe that you, the friends I have made through this site in the past two years will keep visiting and we’ll keep in touch. :-)

Life has been so hectic since I moved to Shanghai last January that I had very little time for photos and needless to say, no time for any kind of reflections — things had gone by so quickly. From time to time, I ponder what to do with this blog. I’m certain I want to continue yet I can hardly find any photos I like from the posts in the last few months. Nothing comes close to these 2006 photos. A lot of times I felt bad for posting mediocre photos, for not writing much and not responding to footprints.

I enjoy taking photos, but I just don’t have the time to do it in Hong Kong now. Whenever I’m in HK, it just seems impossible for me to be in the leisurely, relaxed state of mind to explore and discover the images of life which is the essence of this blog. Adding to the busy life and being away from HK, it has been difficult to access my favorite DP blogs from China, making me more detached from the DP circle and fellow bloggers who can be so inspiring.

I know HKDP can last for a while, I’m just afraid the quality of posts are not how I like them to be and I wonder if I should make some changes to it.

HI, I made it! With a cell phone, no cable and without my own laptop and away from home, I managed to make a post for the theme day!

I took this photo at an exhibition at Beijing to commemorate Hong Kong’s return to China. Do come back tomorrow for more photos of the exhibition. :-)

Today is a DP theme day and the theme is “city exchange”. My interpretation is that the photo is to feature another DP city, so here’s my obvious choice — Vancouver. I’ve chosen Vancouver because 1) it is my second home town 2) because I’m on vacation in Vancouver this very moment!!

I want to dedicate today’s post to my first cousin who passed away in Hong Kong yesterday. He was a big brother who had made my adolescence a little bit more bearable and had helped a lost teenager finding herself amongst the many siblings in a big family. He was the only big brother I had…

“365 photos and never missed a day”
This is what Eric proudly declared on the first anniversary of Paris Daily Photo (I forgot where, either in the forum or email or a comment somewhere). I have since made this my target…I’m going to say the same thing on HKDP’s anniversary, and I’ve made it!!!

This may not be a spectacular photo but this is the exact scene in the first photo of HKDP. I should thank all of you for visiting, leaving comments and sending me emails to encourage, inspire, share and makde suggestions! I will continue to post photos while I work in Shanghai, it won’t be easy but I hope you will keep visiting and encourage the contributors just like you have encouraged me.

To all HKDP’s frequent, infrequent, occasional and silent visitors, friends, footprinters, commenters:
