A glimpse of Hong Kong streets from the taxi. 

This post has been sleeping in my draft folder for a long time.

These were taken in summer of 2010. 2 years ago!
Wow! Time flies.

 Anyway, did you notice the amount of mobile phone this taxi driver have in his car?
Amazing right. He was answering calls all the time.

Oh. On an unrelated note.

Did you check out the list of newly registered UNESCO world heritage sites
announced yesterday?
I’m surprised that Malaysia have another UNESCO world heritage site now!

Archaelogical Heritage of the Lenggong Valley (Malaysia)

I didn’t know about this place until I read it on the UNESCO World Heritage website

Btw. You can check out the 26 newly added World Heritage sites over here >>

p/s: I’m going through my draft folder now…

yellow & green

A set of green & yellow pictures taken recently.

This last photo was taken at a train platform in Tokyo. If you’re wondering what the yellow blocks are? They’re guidance blocks for the visually impaired. They kind of function as a braille to the visually impaired, guiding them when they walk on the streets. You’ll find these yellow blocks at a lot of the sidewalks in Tokyo.

Does the country where you live have these too?

Random #5 Otsuka Station

11th March, 2010

Photos taken at Otsuka station (大塚駅）.

Night photos are difficult… This last photo is my favorite but I know this is not perfect yet. It came out brighter than I’ve expected. I took more than 5 shots of this cab driver but he did not noticed it at all…he was so absorbed in his reading.

Anyway, it’s Friday! yeah :) I hope it will be sunny tomorrow coz’ I’m taking a trip to the seaside…
