Default Hong Kong

I was up in Hong Kong this past week for family business. While I was up there I took some time and took some pictures. I usually go there once to twice a year to visit my family but never really got into taking pictures utnil this year. Hong Kong is such an awesome place to capture different pictures/scenarios. Comments/Critiques more than welcomed. Thanks...enjoy

Great shots and this is why I love this forum, I get to see the world without even leaving my house No but seriously I have always been intrigued with Asia and probably won't ever make it there so this view is a welcome relief. The train with a TV in it blew me away. That thing wouldn't last 5 mins in NYC LOL

I love the cityscape shot. Great colors. Maybe a little wider angle, then cropped and adjust the buildings perspective so they dont look like they are leaning and it would be perfect.

Great shots. #1, #3 and #4 are my favourites. In #3 the exposure is spot on. However, the buildings are leaning slightly backwards.
