What a year this has been! Going through my albums, I realized that not only was I fortunate enough to have captured some amazing images from places I could only previously had hope to visit, I saw my skills maturing in these pictures. It has indeed been a wonderful year. From Bangkok to the backstreets …
19 December 2011 — I came across some great street photography work recently and was inspired to take a walk to the western side of Hong Kong island [heard folks around there were friendlier to photographers]. These were some of the images taken at last weekend’s photowalk which started at Kennedy Town to Sheung Wan …
