Protest Culture




One thing I noticed about Hong Kong is its protest culture. Walking around St Thomas Church I found a group of 4 people walking to the Central Government Offices shouting and carrying posters. A short walk to HSBC building, I found another loud group trying to shame bankers for what they perceive as corrupt business practices. Despite being a part of communist China, Hong Kong seem to respect free speech and its citizen clearly choose to exercise it.

M4-2


Finally, portrait of a good friend. This thing might not be in mint condition as a lot of Leica collectors like their M cameras to be, but hell, I actually like the worn look. This Canadian built M is as good as their German cousins, still a solid performer. I love the uncluttered viewfinder with 35-50-90 framelines.
