HK has one of the worst pollution in this region coz of the many factories in nearby Guandong Province. Anyway i had to make the most of it.

Nice set of pics there Willy! It's been awhile since I last went to HK. Tsim sha Tsui is close to my heart because in my prime, I competed there for the annual dragonboat festival of '94.

I'm surprised that I haven't seem much Ocean Park pics in HK threads... Quite a nice place to take pics with so much colours and variation in subjects...

My guess is most of O.P visitors have to struggle in chasing kids around hehe.

@ian are you still competing in dragon baot races? errrrr did we ever win :)

@david no filter was used here, I even took out the cover holding the UV filter for the sigma 15-30. those 82mm filters are a bit expensive so I can live w/o them for a while. & your right there about parents chaising thier children around OP hahaha :) when I went home a couple told me thier experience in OP, one of thier son a 4 yr. old got lost luckily they same him after 15 minutes

thanks for looking guys, if you happen to visit HK & need a tour guide just give me a ring, I charge cheaper the local tour guides hahaha :D
