Photographer's Note
Another older photo from Hong Kong. It seems that all buses and trams in Hong Kong are covered with advertising. Some of them are quite impressive, and in fact I'm in favour of public transport getting some extra funding this way. But still I wish that at least every tenth of these vehicle would be painted in old fashioned plain way, for the sake of nostalgia and aesthetics.

A fantastic night scene captured, Kari.
The tight crop worked wellfor the distinct outcome, we can see passangers faces inside.
Have a nice weekend,

Hello Kari,
This tight crop of the tram causes us to focus on the colours and the patterns, which are very strong.
They make such a good feature against the night sky.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Kari
I went out to Repulse Bay / Stanley on one of the double decker buses. A fun way to get around for sure. On my first visit to HK, I went by bus to Shau Kei Wan, also worth the trip. A nice profiled view of the bus with good sharpness. Tfs!

Hi Kari,in fact this is the best way to increase money for the public transports, a bit of nostalgy for the old "clean" trams, but i like a lot this one, the decorations made with this cell-phone advertising are very very nice,i like it! Have a nice evening and thanks,Luciano

Hello Kari,
The publicity on this tram creates a nice graphic effect.
Extra income for the public transport company through publicity is important. However, aesthetic conditions may also be imposed.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Kari
I've been to HK several times but the only time I think I saw any without advertising was the first time, back in 1971. A good night time photo showing the passengers very clearly.
cheers

Hi Kari,
Fantastic pattern on the bus, which itself is a nice pattern of windows especially well pronounced by night.
Very nice final effect,
excellent capture,

Hello Kari,
A great side photo of this doubledecker tram. The silvery windows and the pattern of the advertising are very appealing together.

Hello Kari, I like this shot of the tram with its modern livery, the patterning is very eye-catching.
Looking more closely I realise that the product being advertised is from Apple!
A good sharp shot.
Kind regards, Jean.
