Cheung Chau

On Cheung Chau island.

The atmosphere is rather relaxed.

IMG_20151126_0014 640

One could dream of a life here.

IMG_20151126_0015 640

It’s one of those possible doorways.

IMG_20151126_0024 640

One could just stand here and admire the wall.

Lack of love?

An advertising and laundry space.

IMG_20151126_0026 640

Very homely.

IMG_20151126_0028 640

Though sometimes we could be in a hurry.

IMG_20151126_0029 640

Oh I’m dreaming I’m dreaming of a slower pace of life.

IMG_20151126_0030 640

Is it possible?

IMG_20151126_0031 640

It is possible.

IMG_20151126_0032 640

Maybe I’m romanticizing too much.

IMG_20151127_0004 640

It’s a possibility, I suppose.

Rural Views

I’m here again and again.

IMG_20150929_0014 640

It doesn’t look like much – but it has wonderful views.

IMG_20150929_0017 640

The environment is a work of art.

IMG_20150929_0018 640

The mood is always leisurely.

IMG_20150929_0019 640

The debris is zen.

IMG_20150929_0020 640

There’s artless beauty here.

IMG_20150929_0025 640

I’m happy to be marooned here.

Searching Waiting Thinking

It’s that existential condition, of always searching, waiting and thinking.

We can only have images of ourselves.

The glimmer is often only a few steps away.

Wu Kai Sha Beach

There’s something going on at Wu Kai Sha beach.

IMG_20131125_0027 A3 640

I keep seeing Zen-like arrangements:

IMG_20131125_0025 A3 640

The stones are speaking.

And there’s always someone painting the rocks. Sometimes, you see “God is love” in both English and Chinese etched in the sand.

And once in a while, someone builds a turtle sculpture…

IMG_20131128_0022 A3 640

This gentleman has been at it all morning…

The sand is reclaiming its boat:

IMG_20131128_0011 A3 640

The water has achieved what the sand is doing:

IMG_20131126_0004 A3 640

Am I a shadow thinking I am a man or a man thinking I am a shadow?

IMG_20131128_0012 A3 640

Or am I a shadow of a man or a man emerging from his shadow?

IMG_20131128_0014 A3 640

I text, google, search and take a picture – therefore I am.
