I chose to go during the weekdays when it's less busy and it was 24C - Pretty much a Scottish summer. Sky was blue so it was a nice day. Following the hiking site's instructions I took the number 9 bus from Shau Kei Wan Station - just look for Exit A once you're at the metro stat...

To get to the park you can take the metro to Kowloon Tong Station before switching to the overground trains to Hung Hom. Then you can take the tram and if you get off at Tin Sau Station instead of Wetland Park you can walk through the subway to avoid the blazing sun on the hotter...

The trail was shorter than Dragon's Back at 6.6km instead of 8.5km but that doesn't mean it's easier of course despite the 2/4 star rating compared to Dragon's 3/4... It has a lot more forks for one thing but you're really just going right every time. In my case, I had all the ma...

It feels like a while since I wrote something for this blog. You will probably have noticed I haven't been writing for my blog much lately nor have I done any more translations. The reason behind that is that I am very much preoccupied with my full time job these days. That said, I still play games and watch the odd Anime show... Just not as...

GlasgowのGreenbank Garden (グリーンバンク花園) です。入ったことないですが、グラスゴーの観光地の一つらしい。     花園に入ったら最初見えるのはこの日時計ですね。 お昼の頃ぐらいだったかな、着いた時。 この花園は色んな部分に分けているらしい。まず、この道は「秋の道」という。 偶然に今は秋ですね。 この頃まだ緑のりんご見えるなんて、ちょっと驚きました。秋でも育てるの？ 次は「夏の花園」。あまり人がいないな。若い人は花園に興味がないだろ。それなのに、僕がきた（笑） この蝶は見たことあるが… 名前は何だろう？ もう少し歩き続けば「春...

Went out again this year to capture some seasonal autumn themed photos to use for my blog's banner except this time I was using a DSLR instead of a compact. I went to a number of different places this year and captured many photos but not all of them turned out good of course. Originally I wanted to capture autumn coloured leaves of...

Never been to the East End of Glasgow before and I'm pretty sure my parents never brought me here either. I decided to take a look when I saw a sign pointing to "Glasgow Green" park while hunting for interesting places to practice my photography skills. I have to say it looks very plain arriving from the west entrance. There's the old...

Another place I've never been in before but the sound of old transport sounded like it would be an interesting place to get used to my DSLR and lens. Entering the Glasgow Museum of Transport, which is about a 5 to 10 minutes walk from Glasgow University, this set up caught my eye. Makes you feel like you've gone back in time, doesn't it?...

Was out for a stroll at Pollok Country Park with an old high school friend while taking some sample photos with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7. I wanted a different place for test shots instead of using the same spots all the time although having one or two similar places is still the best for comparison purposes I suppose. I think the last...
