Cheers for the comments!

I'd like to go back sometime just to concentrate on photography. Hong Kong is also great for traffic light trail shots with the skyscrapers in the background.

Very nice! I love the view from Victoria peak. I have always been partial to the view from Kowloon across the harbour, but the view from the peak does offer more interesting compositions. What's your favourite building to photograph in HK? Mine would have to be the Shanghai Bank, and the HSBC buiding. (I love that both of those banks have there own currency!)

Yeah mine is probably the HSBC tower. I remember when I went (early 05) the had attached strobe lights to most of the tall buildings and their would be a light show every evening.

I also took a load of pics from the Avenue of stars bit but I prefered my shots from the Peak.

The frames were a little fiddly to do, just case of getting the canvus correct and cutting and pasting the image onto it.

Since doing the shot, I've discovered a really good frames plugin by Fred Miranda, worth checking out details on their site.
