Hong Kong from The Peak on a Summer Night

I had a long day waking up at 5 AM to take a series of subways and trains up to Shenzen for some meetings. I was hot and sweaty and in the kind of meeting clothes that aren’t great for being hot and sweaty in. Anyway, I can’t complain… I made it back to Hong Kong just as the sunset, so I headed up to The Peak for a shot.

In the foreground is Hong Kong and on the far side is Kowloon.

    that is SICK. the way the edge of the trees frames the shot, dark foliage against the glowing, colorful civilization is just surreal. this one really jumps out at me for some reason.

    Great shot! I have been in that general area mid-day, and the skyline is awesome. Hope you had a good time in Shenzen, I had a chance to go to the Seg Electronics Market there and loved it.

    Interesting post-processing. The clouds look so soft, yet that one in the middle looks pixelated.

    If you ever wind up spending more than just a few days in Austin, you should teach a class about your techniques!

    Hmmm, or maybe that was just flickr resizing it?… The original looks smooth.

    Realy great shot. I’d love to see the RAW picture to see how much processing is required to get a shot like that.
