fernando... I will try and update from my current location...
Having helped a friend move homes I have been invited to spend some time in Nagano Prefecture... open ended visit. I brought my x100t and the Leica MP (15, 28, 50mm) plus a bunch of expired Neopan 100... As soon as the house is settled I hope to get some local photos... it's a beautiful time of year here... plenty to see close to the house.
It's Golden Week in Japan so even with the lockdown in some major cities there remains a lot of movement... Shibuya Crossing density is up 200% from work days... sad is some ways.

I love talking to the flat-earthers... Yesterday I spoke with the head of a hospital who believes that wearing a mask and getting vaccinated is the agenda of big government... it was a fun conversation to listen to each other's point of view... needless t...

For sure you
will find surprises which you might not notice in the past, thanks for sharing
Thanks for the amazing pictures
It's always quite interesting to see the huge contrast between nature trails and crowd city life in such small area. I was once in HK in 1994 and when I traveled from HK to Macau I traveled from UK to Portugal (stamps in my passport are whitness)... long ...
Where in HK?
Hi. lovely photos. I am a frequent visitor to HK but have not been for some time due to travel restrictions. Could you let me know where the "countryside" photos are taken? One of them looks a little like Lamma. Thanks. Nick
A little known fact for visitors..
a little less than 25% of the total landmass is developed, 40% is dedicated to country parks and nature reserves. The rest is hilly and mountainous terrain. There are plenty of hiking trails and 'countryside' where one can escape from the city life. But i...
ok
hi. I do a lot of walking in the hills when I am there, so know some of the countryside well. Am curious though of where the greenery pics were taken. would like to go there. thanks for your reply. cannot wait to get back to get HK. Hopefully this year so...
