I really like the symetry of this shot, with the refection in the foreground. Its just a shame about the crowd barriers and the scaffolding on the building behind

hksonetlumiere 024
One of my favourite shots I have taken at night in Hong Kong. Shame about the smudge on the left hand side of the photo, though.

canvas sided truck
These canvas sided trucks are a must for deliveries in Hong Kong.
And they are colourful, but sometimes you can't guess what's inside them and sometimes you probably don't want to know!

Lion and the bell tower 3638
I went to the DSragon & Lion Dancing in Kowloon, yesterday. At the start it was a massive scrum, with TV crews, the press and, like me, amateur photographers; but once the procession moved off the press disappeared, which left the Convention Centre Plaza clear for the amateur photographers and the later Dragon and Lion teams.

Only Fools and Horses
Possibly Britain’s most famous three-wheel vehicle, this Regal van (mistakenly referred to as a ‘Robin’) featured in the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses.It was sole transport for the Trotter family of Del, Rodney, Grandad and Uncle Albert until Del Boy later went ‘upmarket’ and purchased a Capri Ghia. What a plonker!
105,824 Regal vans and saloon cars were produced by Reliant between 1963 and 1972. The bodywork was of all glass fibre unit construction. With a maximum loading capacity of 50 cubic feet, one example was driven in 1968 around Mallory Park racing circuit with sixteen people crammed in the back! Cushtie!
I took this photo, last year, at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu. It was a great day out visiting a haunted stately home, and playing around with cars.

Bum scratching
These two girls had just taken a photograph and were looking at the camera, when lo and behold, the girl on the left decides to scratch her bum - something I thought was reserved for men to do!

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?
With silver bells, and cockle shells,
And pretty maids all in a row

macro 226.jpg
Playing about with some macro shots. This is a five pound coin issued to celebrate the Queen's jubilee of her coronation.
Sometimes I just love macro shots.
