Photographer’s Note
This was taken before Hong Kong became part of China. Taken from Victoria Peak over the downtown core. It was density of population that impressed me. The zoom lens on 200-mm focal length compresses the buildings even more to give this crowded effect. I image the skyline has changed since than and become even more congested.

This is a great shot of Hong Kong, Eva. You have captured so many buildings in one shot. Thank you for sharing it.

Not the usual view from Victoria Peak - is this a residential zone? The photo gives a great sense of the density of Hong Kong.
