Paddling sounds in a tranquil lake 槳聲劃破萬籟湖

On 28 June 2012, I drove along Highway 400 from Toronto and went northbound 160km to Port McNicoll. The Calvert Park is adjacent to the lake shore with dense of green plant on the shore. A small broken deck is still in the waters and looks like the one at Nam Sang Wai in Yune Long, Hong Kong.

An afternoon stroll at Miln Dam Conservation Park 閑遊保育公園

A friend told me that there is a conservation park in Unionville, Toronto. The park is tranquil and beautiful, a good place for strolling. It is convenient to drive there in 15 minutes. While visiting this Miln Dam Conservation Park, I found that park staff were busy in preparing for the re-opening of the park.

City pulse in Mongkok 旺角之城市脈搏

In Hong Kong, Mongkok is a famous city pulse in Kowloon district. In the city, you will feel the prosperity of a busy city: many shops and street activities have attracted many people and international visitors. I love to use compact camera for street snaps, recording places of dynamics and cultural features. This album was made from photos taken on 2 Dec 2011 with Ricoh Digital GR3

在香港,旺角是九龍市區其中一個著名的城市脈搏,身在其中,可以感受到鬧市的繁忙:商店臨立,街頭活動吸引了無數遊人,和外國遊客。我喜歡用小型相機作街頭抓拍,記錄各地的活動和文化特色。這輯照片於2011年12月2日用麗確數碼GR3小型柤機拍攝。

A sunny office 一室艷陽天

This afternoon I was in a doctor's office and was sitting aside with my friend. The big window looked like a big screen presenting a blue sky with warm sunshine and beautiful clouds. I was attracted by the doctor's side silhouette when he conversed with my friend while the sun cast light behind him. The glass on the table created a vivid reflection of the beautiful sky and his silhouette in the window. I have the Ricoh Digital GR3 with me everyday and therefore took these photos.

On the waterfront of Maubaushene 閑遊湖濱小鎮

Toronto's Hwy 400 is running from south to north for more than several thousand kilometers. There are many attraction spots along the highway. In a sunny morning on 31 May, I was driving from Toronto for 150km and exited at Hwy 12 to visit a small town Maubaushene. It was the largest mill town in 1860. Its industries and businesses and many of its workers' cabins, have now vanished.
