Tai O stilt village

[thoughton]

On a recent trip to visit the folks in Hong Kong I spent a a few hours at Tai O Village. It's just an hour up the coast on the same island where my parents live.

But mostly I just like taking pictures of the residents Most of them are older, the young 'uns have all left for the big city.

Nice set thoughton, the BW works for me.

Very nice set! The use of B&W really make these images pop.

Ditto. I really like the use of B&W in these and well done.

[Runmonty]

Yes a nice set indeed. I especially like the street shots, the low angle really works.

These are all so very well done. Love the use of b&w. Thanks for sharing these showing us a glimpse into another part of the world, and the lives within it.

I can only echo the others remarks here. The BW works ... cool set with lots of emotion
