HeZe, where and what building is that? It looks like a sea cucumber / slug / amoeba. How this escaped someone's wild imagination is beyond me.

I'm away from home and missing it a little. So here are a few photos that I think best reminds me of being back and views I feel are different to those you normally see. Hong Kong at sunrise: In a car going up Cotton Tree Drive at the foot of the Bank of China Tower: Venturing over to the other side of the harbour is the Tsim Sha Tsui Clock Tower. I read that its bell has been removed and stored elsewhere, but I keep thinking I have heard it ring before - I might be imagining things. A random piece of information - I have been told that the hill behind the clock tower in the photo is haunted. Back in WWII during the Japanese occupation of the Hong Kong, a memorial tower was built at its summit. It was blown up after Hong Kong was liberated, however the quality and strength of the building was such that its foundation and the butresses supporting it remains. The yellowish buidings partly obscured by the lamppost is what was built on top. Looking down Peking Road's concrete canyon, by the old Marine Police HQ: People give Hong Kong alot of stress for the amount reclamation that has taken place over the years. In the 60s the bay, for which Causeway Bay was so named, was filled in and a park was created on top. Here's a view looking down at it, picture taken from the building casting a shadow over the people on the lawn: Back to photos of buildings of the skyline. Christmas decorations at Statue Square, taken from the Legislative Council: Notice the white Audi, bottom right. Yes, it was a GOOD DAY (I only noticed that when uploading the photo). The island from the approach into the Western Harbour Crossing under the ICC: What has to be one of my favourites out of all the photos I've ever taken and its pretty good having been taken using my phone's camera. Following the ridge line is a trail called Dragon's Back: Last one. Apologies for the grainy-ness. Fireworks over the harbour from Kowloon side: This being my first post with images, if there are any mistakes - woopsies.

your regional shots are impressive and closeups of the city equally so. was wondering, if you don't mind me asking, what water mod are you using?

That's Tin Shui Wai new town and an overview of the wetland park. I like that highway that circles the 'city of sadness'.

If there is any one cj that I call inspirational it is yours. You bring sc4 to a whole new level.

I just can't believe how anyone can feel that this is 'right'. And surprised that this happened to someone of such political stature to Pakistan. It actually opened my eyes to how bad the situation is in the country. We'll see if this can act as a catalyst for reform and how it affects the upcoming elections.

Taken from the BBC News website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7161590.stm Pakistani former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has been killed in a presumed suicide attack. News of her death was confirmed by a military spokesman and members of her Pakistan People's Party (PPP). Ms Bhutto had just addressed an election rally in Rawalpindi when gunfire and an explosion occurred. At least 15 other people are reported killed in the attack and several more were injured. Ms Bhutto had twice been the country's prime minister. She had been campaigning ahead of elections due in January. Nawaz Sharif, also a former prime minister and a political rival, told the BBC her death was a tragedy for "the entire nation". Mr Sharif said there had been a "serious lapse in security" by the government. Earlier on Thursday, at least four people were killed ahead of an election rally he himself had been preparing to attend close to Rawalpindi. An interior ministry spokesman, Javed Cheema, was quoted as saying by AFP that she may have been killed by pellets packed into the suicide bomber's vest. However, AP quoted a PPP security adviser as saying she was shot in the neck and chest as she got into her vehicle, before the gunman blew himself up.
