My baby snake

Me and my snake, Hong Kong, May 2020

蛇是假的。

這部相機大概兩年前被我跌壞了，但最近又復活。寶麗萊是好高消費的玩意呀，平均一張要二十元。

The snake is fake.

I broke this camera around 2 years ago. But somehow it works again. Polaroid is expensive to play with. It costs me about HK$20 per each film.

即影即有相很好玩呢，已經上癮了。
Shooting instant film is very fun. I think I am addicted.

Be free

A bird and Eunice in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong, April 2020

在海邊逛逛。
Strolling along the Seaside.
杜鵑花和小白鷺，其中兩樣我在等待期間見到的事物。/ Azalea and the little egret -- 2 of the things I saw when waiting. 魚。/ Fish. 之後日落，我們還見到一隻死掉的水母，但沒有菲林。/ Later it was sunset. We also saw a dead jelly fish. But I ran out of film.

心很累，很想睡很多覺。身邊越來越多人在談移民，這樣令我覺得很傷心。
I want to sleep a lot. The real world is very cruel. Life in Hong Kong is becoming more difficult by each day. More and more people around me are talking about immigration. It makes me sad.

Dust bathing!

Animals, Kowloon Bay, Hong Kong, April 2020

超級可愛。

你知道麻雀會在沙中洗澡嗎？我以前聽過，但今次第一次見，而且剛好手上有裝了135mm鏡頭的相機。

My heart melts.

Do you know that sparrows bath in the sand? I heard it before but it was the first time I saw it. Luckily my camera was attached with a 135mm lens at that moment. 沙浴的痕跡！/ The trace of the dust bath! 黑領椋鳥 / Black-collared starling  黑臉噪眉 / Masked laughingthrush 很大隻的飛蛾。/ A huge moth. 又是可愛的麻雀。/ Kawaii sparrow again. 小蜜蜂 / Bee 杜鵑花 / Rhododendron 圓碌碌的珠頸斑鳩 / Spotted dove 高樓大廈種的植物。/ Plants planted on a skyscraper.

Life with masks

Hong Kong, March 2020

前排疫情差點，街上很小人，餐廳更小人。現在情況好點，街上又人來人往，不過大家仍然戴着口罩。

現在天氣非常熱非常潮濕，戴口罩生活很不容易呢。

Previously the situation of Wuhan pneumonia in Hong Kong was worse. There were fewer people on the street. There were even fewer people in the restaurants. Now the situation is much better. There are many people everywhere again. But still, everyone is wearing masks.

Now the weather is very humid and hot here. Living a life with mask is not easy.

Seen from a footbridge

Wet market, Yuen Long, Hong Kong, April 2020

又是行人天橋。香港四周圍都有很多天橋。

晚上在一條行人天橋上行。托賴香港沒有需要封鎖整個城。

Foot bridge again. There are many bridges in Hong Kong.

At night walking on a foot bridge. It's fortunate that Hong Kong does not need a lockdown.
賣蔬菜。/ Selling veggies. 看起來好像一切正常。/ Looks like life goes on normally.

Life inside the cage

Wan Chai, Hong Kong, January 2020

政府在很多天橋上都加裝圍欄。一點都不美麗。感覺自已好像在籠中看風景。
The government sets up fence over many footbridges in Hong Kong. It is not beautiful at all. Feel like I am looking at the cityscape from a cage.
香港的夜景很美。
Hong Kong looks good at night.

Monday's blue sunset

Kowloon Bay to San Po Kong, Kowloon, Hong Kong, May 2020

我很喜歡這條路線。度過了漫長的一天後走這條路，可以讓我冷靜下來。如果早點知道就好了。現在都已經夏天了，行了三十分鐘後流了很多汗。

第一張相中的山是飛鵝山。

I like this route a lot. After a long day, it's very calming to me. Only if I could know this route earlier. Now the summer has come. I sweated a lot after 30 minutes.

The mountain in the first photo is Kowloon Peak.

生活很痛苦。生命明明是屬於自己的，但有很多自己控制不到的東西，有很多無可奈何的事。
