In terms of travel photography the photos really seem to capture the essence of those cities.

The crop on #4 looks slightly awkard as you've chopped off the buildings in the foreground, but I like the scene. So ramshackle!

Interesting lighting effect in #2 as well.

After seeing your excellent photos, I want to go back to Hong Kong and Macao again and again :D

Good to see they have taken the scaffolding away from the St. Paul ruins. When we were there we were unable to get closer than 50 metres to them.

I thought you might also have a photo of the statute (a mermaid, if I remember properly) located at the bottom of the steps tpo the ruins.

Great stuff!

Cheers
