The drag of endless mental work in a strange land takes its toll. Fatigue can kill so petty escapades provide hopeful deviations from the brewing madness. An aging DSLR keeps good company to a walk around the neighbourhood, a short drive to a scenic place, or a silent recollection in a quiet nook granting that the host community and the elements of nature would allow one a safe passage to solitude and contemplation. Loneliness quickly turns to joy when something exciting gets captured by the cam’s shutter then set free into the laptop’s screen followed by electric words that rush from the fingers to the keyboard in an effort to describe the moment. Alas, the brain is alive once again!
You always find the most artistic view!

Not easy to do when you’re doing it from the upper deck of a double decker bus 🙂 Thanks, Bonnie.

Way to go, Jessie! Looks similar to the Golden Gate bridge but yet more beautiful.

Hi, Gina. It’s one of the longest suspension bridge in the region, I was told. You won’t miss it when travelling between the airport and Hong Kong island. Thanks.

Lovely, it does look like a longer version of the Golden Gate Bridge, especially in that light.

Thanks, bittercharm. Yes, photos in this (Cityscapes) series were mostly taken from a moving double decker. The photos in the “Hong Kong Tramways” series were taken at night from a moving tram. I had no choice. These were the only ways I could cover much of Hong Kong during my short stay. Thanks for visiting.
