    Yea I took a shitload of pics over the past 2 weeks. I will upload pics from Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou later.

    Not so much in HK because once you've seen the sights, all you do is eat.sleep.shop. Which is a hell of a good thing!

    HK is not clean Oh boy its not at all clean orlfroforlforlf. Like every big city there is tons of smog and exhaust. You walk out, you smell exhaust, sea water, sewage and among other things.

    There is alot of urban decay, many residential buildings have degraded into high-rise slum housing. Its not a pretty site if you're a tourist, but the city is working to renovate all of them. The so-called 'slums' are not necessarily poor, a person living in them can easily buy a decent house in North America. But because of unrestricted capitalism over a few decades, there is a huge gap b/w rich and poor.

    You won't expect to find many traditional buildings in HK, most have been torn down for more modern buildings. Shanghai is a perfect blend of old/new. Hangzhou and Suzhou has modernized, but not to that extent. People there still live in housing over 1000 years old.

    Most of my pics are traditional stuff so sit tight!

    Woo..Hong Kong.

    A couple of the pics look like they're not completely focused, but the rest look good. Looking forward to see the rest of the photos.

    First one could, have been alot better. Should have went to the rail, zoom in, focus, and use a distant macro. Then the skyline, would have fucking ruled.

    Need to work on your photography xD

    Good work, I like the shots, but they could be alot better.
