A Thinking Street Photography Site
Sonny boy wanted to go cycling.
So we did.
There goes my plan to do nothing.
Plover Cove Reservoir is fantastic!
It’s nice stroll.
Great weather.
The dogs are out.
Lots of healthy walking.
Contemplation.
Some more walking.
A love story waiting to unfold.
Fun fun fun!
Wind, water, hills.
All we need.
Was at the HK Food Festival at the Convention and Exhibition Centre, because sonny boy is interested in food prep and stuff.
We tried the squid.
Were tempted by those.
Can’t carry those back.
A pensive moment.
Sonny boy had those rolled ice cream.
Peking duck!
We didn’t try those beef cubes either…
Rise and shine!
To Keelung!
Wifey thought Eslite Bookstore at Taipei was the only place to go to, which I agreed.
What a place! It’s full of book lovers.
My kind of people.
This is what I do on a boring commute.
MRT and TRA back to Keelung.
Headed for the night market.
Fwah!
Are we hungry yet?
Check it out!
That’s the Keelung night market.
Loads of street food.
Street food, street hawkers, street photography.
Yummy.
There’s even a slice of Singapore/Malaysia/Indonesia!
I succumbed only to stinky tofu.
Back to the ship.
For a quiet beer.
Rise and shine!
The view from our balcony.
To Kaohsiung!
We were here.
Tiger, dragon, tourist.
Tourist trap.
But the stuff was really yummy.
Shousan Hill.
Nice view.
Love River.
Everyday life.
Amphibious vehicle.
Sensuous city.
On Royal Caribbean’s Voyages of the Sea, to Kaohsiung and Taipei (Keelung) from Hong Kong.
There were wonderful views at the top deck.
In a contemplative mood.
Lots to take in.
The restaurant queue was crazy at first.
But the restaurant was awesome.
Went on a boat trip from Sai Kung to an outlying island.
The famous Chung Kee Noodles in an alleyway.
Checked out various boat trips on offer.
Looked at the fresh seafood for sale.
An old lady approached us and quoted $250 for a trip and off we went.
It’s a salt mine village.
There were many abandoned village houses.
Then we saw this.
Beautiful.
There’s a history here waiting to be figured out.
Nice little courtyard.
What joy!
Kids everywhere are the same.
Here kitty kitty.
Just for contrast here.
There’re busy scenes.
People are at work.
You could find quiet moments as well.
Sharing time together.
Alone together.
Or simply by yourself.
You could frame and reframe a moment.
Until you disappear and everything is just right.
There’re so many scenes to linger over.
There’re quiet moments.
Time for ourselves.
Time to think.
A colourful moment.
Crafting time.
Things get moved around a lot here.
No kidding.
Just a few more shots reminding me that everyday life is fascinating.
Things on offer.
Yummy cuttlefish!
Every day is work.
But if you find companionship then all is beautiful.
We all move from place to place.
We figure it out as we go along.
It’s all work in progress.
Was visiting Cheung Chau island and I was fascinated by those small motor trucks.
So I spent quite a bit of time trying to snap pictures of those passing trucks.
Not every photo is perfect.
But I think the slightly haphazard compositions convey speed.
The drivers don’t seem to mind.
Most of the time they saw me and then looked away.
They’re probably used to tourists and daytrippers.
Thanks for reading!
