The day when we took photos

Tai Po, Hong Kong, April 2019

幾個月前影的相。一些低了曝和構圖不美麗的重曝。

最近都很小影相了。

Photos shot from a few months ago. Some underexposed and unbeautifully framed double exposures.

I seldom take photos these days.

每一日都有很荒謬的事發生，每一日都要繼續工作 (周未休息)。腦袋很疲累。

上星期有兩天感覺很抑鬱，不想說話，不想回覆任何人的訊息 (除了工作上的)，只想睡覺。不過最後都是不停看新聞，然後睡得更少。

Ridiculous things happen everyday and I need to work everyday (day off in the weekend). My brain is exhausted.

Last week there were 2 days I felt very depressed. I didn't feel like talking and replying message. I just wanted to sleep but ended up reading and watching news and slept even less.

Never forgive, never forget.

China Town, Vancouver

China Town, Vancouver, Canada, March 2019

又再繼續放加拿大時影的相。今次是第六天的早上。

這個早上去了溫哥華唐人街。沒有預計中的多唐人。聽說自從溫哥華多了很多中國人後，四周猶如唐人街 (特別是列志文)，唐人街都逐漸失街存在的價值，小了唐人來，老店相繼結業，沒有了以前的熙來攘往。

唐人街很多小店的職員都說廣東話，感覺很親切。有種回到舊香港的感覺。

Continuing to post my photos shot in Canada. This time is the morning of the 6th day.

In this morning, I went to the China Town in Vancouver. It did not have as many Chinese as I expected. I was told that since many Chinese people moved to Canada everywhere is like a China town (esp. Richmond). China town started to lose its value of existence. Fewer Chinese people come here. Old shops are closing down one after one. The street became less hustle and bustle.

The staff of most of these small shops spoke Cantonese. It felt so dear to me. Here I felt like going back to the old Hong Kong.

最近網上看到海外香港人示威都有人踩場，為勢孤力弱的他們感到心痛。
Recently there were some overseas Hongkongers protesting across the globe but they were all disturbed and harassed by the Chinese people. Hong Kong's communities are not as big as the Chinese ones. Like the students in Australia, they got surrounded and beat up. My heart broke when I saw those videos and lives.

A breeze swept through the windows

Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden, Tai Po, Hong Kong, June 2019 

又是一個很傷心的晚上。

I am feeling very sad about Hong Kong and hopeless about the future.

Many people have been arrested and injured but the people in power have not been moved a little bit. Conflicts within the city keep on intensifying. So far neither peaceful nor violent movement could change a thing.

我想睡。
I want to sleep.

Rainy and cloudy

Kwun Tong, Hong Kong, April 2019

同一個地點，不同的日子，不同的天氣，不同的心情，不同的沖曬店。
Same place but on different days, with different weathers, moods and developed by different places.

香港很美麗，我愛香港。
Hong Kong is beautiful. I love Hong Kong.

Fourth of June

Annual candle light vigid, Victoria Park, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, June 2019

至1989年來，香港人每年的這一天都會來到這個地方。我們不想忘記在天安門發生的那一場屠殺。

Every year since 1989, Hong Kong people gather here on this date. We don't want to forget the Tiananmen Massacre.

這兩個月感覺很漫長。
These 2 months feel so long.
