Hong Kong Reflections gallery

Go to last post
Hi Judy,

I have been looking at all in your Hong Kong gallery and must say they all are of fine quality. Well I wouldn't expect one of less quality from you, not that I would like to give you kind of unbearable heavy weight on your shoulders, but you just go for the finest and you make it happen, the photographs are just of the finest quality.

I do like the cruis ship reflected in the windows of the building.

But the best in my opinion is 'trade show feet'. An extraordinary eye for the detail and made with the same high technical quality standards you always out yourself to.

I can forget the quality standards oh so easily, just being in a stage the shapes, lines and colors seem to be to be followed, well more in my line, more according to my character.

Just liked to be able to have a look at these outstanding photographs and also to make aquintances after a to long period of your absence.

Still remind your comments on my early photographs, well I just was so happy one could recognise the subject and even taht had been always the fact.

Also like your photographs of modern architecture in this album, but these feet, it's kind of abstraction and well and sharp photographed,

What a great gallery, Judy.........how terrific to be able to go so
far away, on business! Probably cut the sight-seeing time down,
I'm sure, but you were able to capture some wonderful shots.....my
favorite is the one from Victoria Peak. Beautiful!

Thanks Marilu,

The trip was a lot of fun besides business. We also went to Thailand for a couple of weeks. When I get myself organized (I'm sooo slooow) I'll put up a small public gallery from the Thailand portion of the trip.

Glad you liked the Victoria Peak view! :-)

Thanks for the warm compliments Jacques. I'm glad you have such a high opinion of my photography ... although not fully deserved, I'm afraid.

Thanks for mentioning the photos you like from this group, including the Trade Show Feet. It's always interesting to know how people respond.

Yes I remember some of your early photos. We all had to start somewhere, and it was never at the level of instant mastery. I was pretty hard on you, as I recall. Hope you've forgiven me. You still frustrate me from time to time with your stubbornness! ;-)

Judy The first has a really grand perspective nice shot and I like the reflections photo also, as always very nice photo. DL--Dog Leader 2100/B300
 
Judy, I love the 'Trade Show Feet' shot. Really funny! We are used to seeing women with aching feet, but men? Not usually. This is wonderful! Thanks for the smile.

Thanks Beth. I bent down to loosen my own shoes and saw the feet at the neighboring table. It really summed up a tiring few days for me. Happily my feet have recovered and I have this "souvenir". :-)

Nice work Judy. Truly reflections in more ways than one.

I just love the ship's reflection taken from the overpriced hotel room - this would have been a successful shot without the ship, given the strong two-point perspective and mosaic-like appearance of the glass. What makes a memorable shot is the inclusion of that extra something...

The upward-looking shots of the scrapers work well for their good use of negative space, which is simple and clean, making it easier on the eye.

And of course trade-show feet is deservingly a popular favorite...
 
Judy,

Sorry I'm just getting to this now, but I really enjoyed your architectural gallery, and it resonated particularly with me, given I was just in Hong Kong myself over the holidays, though for only a couple of days. The two images below, especially the second, are my faves...the second is incredibly imaginative. I also enjoyed hkcec_grand_hall.jpg, for the shapes and lines and strong sense of motion created by the ceiling diagonals. And as a fan of city skylines, you put together a very fine panorama for the very last image in your album.

I wish I could have been as imaginative with my eye while in Hong Kong, but on family vacations, I don't do as well in being creative...seems like I need to be in a different zone (my wife just calls it being weird) Nevertheless, I'll point you to my own vacation snaps album (which was posted on the forum in early January):

At least I caught as much smog as you did! :-)

I'm looking forward to your images from Thailand when you get a chance, as well. Thanks for sharing your latest album,

Robert

Hi Judy,

Oh, I could relate to the Trade Show Feet shot. Very funny. The architectural reflections were also very nice.

Being raised in the Fargo, ND area, I was drawn to your Winter on the Prairies gallery. Just beautiful. The prairies are so often overlooked when considering natural beauty, and you have proven that they can be beautiful in their own way.

Best Regards,

Jim

Thanks so much your comments, Gregg. I really appreciate them, coming from you, because I admire your architectural and abstract images so much. I know you put a lot of thought and care into your work.

Thanks so much for your comments, Robert. I enjoyed your album.

A had assorted other shots that just seemed to create a jumbled album. I have to credit my sister for suggesting I concentrate on the "Reflections" theme for a public gallery.

When travelling with others, I often feel I'm cheating them out of their sightseeing time when I stop to photograph things from various angles. Unfortunately, you have to be a bit selfish to be a good photographer.

Thank you for taking time to look. I'm a prairie girl at heart. Sometimes the overlooked terrain yields the most interesting photos.

I love to go camping in the mountain parks, but the photos I bring home always disappoint me. They look so much like tourist postcards. It's harder to be original when the landscape has already been photographed a million different ways.
