Two pictures from the last couple of days in Hong Kong... I will add more from there and Beijing soon....

I believe it's all about been close and personal.... I rarely like candids made with a telelens.
It takes guts (put intented) to go with a 14mm close to someone.... but it creates a link between the subject and the photographer and that shows on the picture.

Those two would have not been the same if I would have been shooting them with a 300mm ;-)a


Feedback welcome :-)

I love the texture, composition, and feel of #1! So much interest - yet it doesn't overwhelm!

That first pic is great, it reminds me of http://www.photomichae​lwolf.com/100x100/inde​x.html (external link) but way more personal.

It looks like that picture was taken in a small shop, its amazing how much chaos can exist in a such a small space.
