Look at the color of the ocean behind the boats - that's what I really miss......

Neat! Bet that's quite a sight when they're racing.

Hi Kirk,

The beach is amazing isn't it? I would miss it to if I ever moved away.

Hi Cathy,

They actually look quite cool gliding over the water. Too bad the zoom lens that I ordered didn't come in in time for me to take some pictures of these dragon boats on the water. Ahhh, maybe next year.

Hi Milgwimper,

Thank you! I love the colors too!

Hi Lajja,

They look hungry, don't they? Thank you for the compliment!

Hi Cindy,

Do they have dragon boat races in Hong Kong too?

Hi Clare,

Thank you! =)

Reid,

Yes it's a very big thing in Hong Kong. They gave a festival every year. http://www.discoverhongkong.com/eng/heritage/festivals/he_fest_drag.jhtml

hi reid, that brilliant picture looks like it should be used for postcards on which you write "having fun! too bad you aren't here!"

Reid

Hi Cindy,

Thanks for the link. There was quite a bit of useful information on the site there.

Hi Big BoK,

Well, maybe when she is older you can bring her here. The dragon boat races are usually in August.

Hi J,

WOW! *blushing* Thanks for the compliment. I don't know what else to say, especially since you have some of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen.

Equipment


  • Canoneos5d
    Canon EOS 5D

    Most of the newer photos on this site are being taken by this camera. I'm still learning how to use it, but I think the photos it takes are amazing. Though the lens I use often varies, many of the photos on this site are taken with a Canon EF 35mm f2.0 lens.


  • Dscu40r
    Sony Cyber-shot® DSC-U40

    A majority of the photos on this site were shot using this little camera. It was compact and discreet -- excellent for taking photos under most conditions. Sadly, it has recently died.
