There is a big fruit wholesale market in the neighbourhood, with workers unloading consignments of a motley collection of fruits from around the world throughout the night year round. In the early hours, retailers will flock to the wholesale market to bargain for boxes of fruits to get their roadside kiosks prepared in time for business during the morning rush hours until nearly midnight. I always fancy taking a picture of the piles of boxes dotting the street with the crowded skyline of highrises in the background, just to give an interesting thought to the viewers about how the fruits from the vast fields of different orchards have ended up in the street at a crowded place for the busy communters of whom most have not given them a thought. But, sigh, the streets are far too crowded with the goods and people for a photographer to catch the right angle for any photo. Let's see if I will ever have the good light and the right viewpoint.
The window shopping some hours ago has almost provoked my AgIDS illness. Just in case you’re in Hong Kong or are coming here, and have the money to burn (All in HK$/ body only): GX200 = $3,280 GRD2 = $3,380 LX3 = $3,180 G10 = $3,280 Prices are available form a gear shop on the 1st floor of the Mongkok Computer Centre. Besides these new low prices, I found that Wing Shing Photo (55-57Sai Yeung Choi St., MK Tel: 2396 6886/ 91-95 Fa Yuen St., MK Tel: 2396 6885) is offering a Sony A700 + Carl Zeiss Lens package for HK$9,980 (hopefully, a bargain will make it some hundreds cheaper).
