Bonnie and I took the Star Ferry to Tsim Sha Tsui for dinner this evening. As we crossed Victoria Harbour we could see this awesome sunset towards Lantau Island. I couldn’t take multiple exposures from the moving ferry, so as soon as we docked I rushed off the boat and took this from the pier.

This was taken handheld as I didn’t have my tripod with me.

I just had this shot lined up on the tripod when a couple of women and their dogs strolled into the frame.

I took a couple of shots and then waited patiently for them to leave. Unfortunately the tide was coming in somewhat faster than I realized, so by the time they left my tripod and I were standing in a couple of inches of water.

Afterwards I removed my waterlogged shoes and we strolled back to Sai Kung Town to find some flip-flops. But I ended up liking one of the first shots—taken whilst standing on dry land—best anyway.
