A shot taken on my recent holiday to Hong Kong (Nathan Rd. Kowloon). Lot's of cheap camera gear over there, bad for the bank account. :)

Thanks sparker1, i think the guy on the bike adds to the authenticty....bus vs man...like the modern civilisation vs ancient tradition. :)

Wow, I really like that. The gleam and the blur of the bus, the glow of the lights, the guy on the bike - very atmospheric. I think that's what travel photography should be.

I wish I could visit Hong Kong.

Thanks mate, yeah great for electronics and photo gear also. I found Wing Shing Photo supplies to be really good, they aren't the cheapest in HK but they have a HUGE range of products and are very helpful.

Nice shot, the blur of the bus brings this picture alive. I notice that the delivery guy on the bike is going the wrong way - just like in Manhattan :)

Thanks mate, i've been to Manhattan, bike is probably the only way to get around there, the taxis are NUTS, must say they have that precision driving down pat, millimetres between each vehicle!!
