High Rise Hong Kong

[Pete Askew]

OK, no trip to HK could be complete without at least one shot like this!

Leica M9 + 18mm Zeiss Distagon M f1:4.0. ISO 320, 1/250s at f1:5.6. PP in LR / Nik ColorFX 4.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Brilliant. I really could not live there. Looks great in photos, but I really just couldn't function there at all.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Down the rabbit hole for sure Rob - I know what you mean

I could stand NY for about three days, then was glad to leave for somewhere less crowded

Pete - great perspective and use of the wide lens

 

[Keith Hollister]

And a dandy shot it is, Pete! Really nice comp and I like whatever the processing is - it has that soft but sharp thing going on.

 

[Brian Moore]

A beaut, Pete. And Keith has given voice to something I too have remarked on in the past: That soft but sharp thing. Lovely!

gives me neck strain just looking at it. love the spaghetti house, not what you'd expect in hk.

 

[Aldous Lau]

Very smart and great composition here Pete

Beth, there are restaurants like Spaghetti House, Pizza Express, Steak house etc around HK

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks again all. I must stress that Aldous didn't take me to a Spaghetti House though!

Then I will only bring you to the Spaghetti House only when you travel to HK next time LOL

Just kidding. I will bring you to one of a small Island in Hong Kong and try some local seafoods, the price is quite fair over there with fresh seafoods
