I love in general the perspective to shot shot straight up. This perspective we are not really use with our eyes, and combined with ultra wide angle lenses you get something totally new. I'm living in Hamburg, Germany and there is a very famous yard for this perspective. As I tried this shot several times, I started to get the exact shot all over the world. And which city could be more perfect that Hong Kong for this? To find these spots in the City I use just google maps.

Magnificent!!

This is both interesting and cool !
I love its simple complexities. I find it rather amazing that so many people live in such a close proximity to one another, and to think, that this a just a tiny fragment of it's surroundings.
An excellent perspective of functional, systematic chaos.
Thanks for sharing all your great imagery !

Your photography is thoughtful and beautiful. The explanations you give simply add to the experience. I feel as though I should be taking notes. Thank you.
