Hong Kong is a crazy place - always busy with lots of noise, and lots of shopping malls! We noticed that all people seem to do here is shop, and shop a lot! So we decided to do likewise and explored the street markets of Graham street and Li Yuen East and West in the business district of Hong Kong. As most of you know I love oriental artefacts and antiques so Hollywood Road in Soho was my favourite! But I was only allowed to window shop doing some pricing up ready to compare to mainland China. On our travels we decided to shop around for a digital SLR camera for Martin's birthday. Martin and I laugh about this, but .. it is assumed by many that Martin has been taking all the pictures on our website, and he has gladly enjoyed taking that credit. However, the time has come to reveal the truth... initially, he didn't take very many at all with my old camera, then once we got the new digital in Europe, he took a few more with that. Mostly, up until now he has been using his trusty old 35mm film Canon Rebel SLR to take pictures. But, don't worry, from now on you'll be able to enjoy more of his pictures coming from a Canon EOS 350D SLR. Hope you enjoy them all!
One afternoon we caught the Peak Tram to Victoria Peak which is up above the business district on Hong Kong island. We walked around the lush, jungle summit and hung out, and once the evening city lights came on Martin got to work: this is one of his first shots with his new toy! *Mush
