Lego Exhibition - Figurines

I went to the Lego exhibition at Taikoo Shing Cityplaza. The photography conditions were not good as there were waist high glass barriers with corner seams and large crowds on all sides of the models. I tried some tilt-shift processing on my photos but they still looked unattractive. So here, I have just posted some photos of the figurines.

Lamma Island 2011

Lamma Island is a short 30 minute ferry ride from Central or Wanchai in Hong Kong. It seems to be a little haven for Westerners looking for an alternative lifestyle. You can see several houses sporting gardens and backyards where children can play, the kind of thing that is common in the West but rare in Hong Kong.

The island is also home to a coal powered power station and one wind turbine. We used much of our energy hiking up and down a dead end path so did not make it to see the wind turbine.

I feel this island is a nice getaway but it seems to suffer from the pressures of development and illegal waste dumping. There are also many grave sites all over the place.
