????????????????????????????????????????????????????????3. What is “photographic” means to you?
At this moment, photography is an interest to me, I could go for snapshot timeliness. There is no targets, no responsibilities, no restrictions, which is differs from my routine task, the only thing is to be faith to myself — leisure and carefree.
Buy antibiotics online without prescription. Online Drugstore. Ever since I did sell out few of my photos at the foreign websites and earn a bit US dollar lately,
I am dreaming that I might be able to earn a living by photography in the rest of my life, of course, I know I will not be as free as now.

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????4. When did you start taking photographic?
I started photography right after the summer I finished my high school. I spent my first summer job salary for my first digital camera, and never go out without a camera thereafter. During my study in university, my effort on photography was recognized by the tutor, at the same time, I bought my first antique film camera in Japan, I could not help falling in love with photography from that time.

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????5.Which kinds of camera do you using? Film camera or digital camera? And why?
I am fine with both film camera and digital camera, I used to use film camera more because of the tones and colors. Now I use digital camera most of the time, since it is more convenient, but I still have preference on the feeling and texture of analog photographs. Lately I am fascinated by infrared photography; I like its sureal color expression.

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????6. We can see another side of the city in your photos. How do you discover the location?
This is what I am trying to do – present a pl
ace in a different angle. I realize Hongkongnese, including myself are getting used to the environment, becoming insensitive to the surroundings, therefore, the photos they took turn out to be standardized. I am not willing to present my photos as an “equipmentation”, I try to present Hong Kong in a not Hong Kong way. I tried my concept in Japan, which might bring a different Japan to the audience.
To refresh my mind to Hong Kong, I used to take reference to the photos taken by the tourists to
Hong Kong. It is effective to learn a new Hong Kong from the point of tourists’ view.

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I am not a professional photographer, and the audiences might possess more technical knowledge than I do, so I am not qualified to give out any opinions. However, I believe concentration and curiosity to the surroundings are the most critical criteria for taking good photos.
