Well, greatly encouraged by all your comments (and takeing note of your suggestions), I have been snapping away. I hope you all don't get fed up with my postings (or feel that you never have to visit Hong Kong as "you've seen it all"). But you've helped me to start seeing things that, for a long time now, I've been taking for granted. This set is close to my home - I shall start moving further afield to get some more interesting pictures. Thanks for your patience, comments and suggestions. BTW, I've bought a monopod. I like to shoot with the lowest ISO setting and widest aperture I can. Often difficult to get the sharpest hand-held shots with the relatively heavy body/lens combinations I use.
Thanks, Gary. Never had a "fan" before :-) If it ever stops raining here (June was the wettest June on record, and July is headed that way also) then I'll get out and get some more. Shutter finger's getting itchy!
