Hong Kong must be one of the most vibrant cities.
The waves in the harbor was a bit choppy when I took the photo.
We have carried out a bit too much land reclamation, narrowing the harbor.
Waves set up by ship wash or wind just got bounced back and forth in the harbor.
Together with the city lights, they form a Vibrant picture.
Good night shot
Thank you!
What a wonderful photo of HK again. Thanks for sharing. My wife has a short vacation this month. If we can get a cheaper ticket, we may go to HK for a short family trip.
That would be nice. Hope you can make it and enjoy the trip!
Thanks, Michael.

Fantastic capture of a vibrant city.
Thank you for your kind compliment!
I hadn’t thought about the waves crashing back and forth. And the shore line seems quite low. What happens in high tides?
I worked on maritime / marine engineering before I retired; designing and supervising the construction of the biggest container terminal here in HK – therefore I am more sensitive to issues like wind, waves, currents and water levels. High tide presently is not a problem, typhoon surge may flood the low lying area but in future with global warming raising sea levels plus the occasional high storm surge could flood parts of HK.
Interesting, so you “moved” from bridges (above the water) to water level? 🙂
Hi Brieuc, I have done many things – creating new towns which together housed several million people in HK, traffic and transportation planning, traffic control and surveillance, training of rivers to prevent extensive flooding in the New Territories, material engineering, risk management etc. So, I am having another life.
Impressive. It must quite fulfilling to still see the results of your work here and there. Like a feeling of “well, I did good”. 🙂
I am glad that I have been doing something good for the community in my career; I do really have the feelings you talked about.
Must be nice. On another subject i just got a makeshift translation for the Japanese script. I’ll send it to you by mail so you know the end of the story
Will be pleased to see what it actually says!
