New York City, Pt. 2
My neighborhood, early one morning, spring 2011. Never know what you’ll find on an early morning walk. I got the feeling this plant was checking to see if it was safe to sneak around the corner.
Hong Kong
About as Hong Kong as you can get. 2011. Multitudes of cranes, no clue yet about the building going up. This site is near the Star ferry terminal on the Hong Kong side.
Chinatown
New Year’s Flower Market in The Year of the Pig. Pineapples are for good luck. Taken in January of 2008.
