  • Sham Shui Po, or simply SSP, I think it has to be the top 3 of Kai's list of favourite street photography spot! How to get around, and what can you expect from SSP?

    @JANKOLLPLAYZFX 6 років тому

    That reminds me so much of old DRTV Videos! I know so many places in HK just because I watched so many DRTV Videos. Lately, I was watching a music Video and I recognized so many places.
    After you all left DRTV I continued watching the new channels and really like the videos. When I was in School I had Photography in my major course, so I always watched on UA-cam how to do this and that. Then somehow Photography became my favorite hobby. It's just nice how many opportunities we have these days. :)

  • @sennabullet

    The first of your HK tour videos I have seen....love it!!! Looking forward to watching the other ones you make. You forgot the scary restaurant that serves snake soup though...if you like animal photography! :P

  • @TheMickybutler
    @TheMickybutler 6 років тому +3

    Not so much about street photography this time, Lok. It was an entertaining nod to why everyone should visit Hong Kong and also visit the 'not so tourist' spots. You'll never cover all that it has to offer the first time which is why you'll want to return again and again. It also feels like the safest place I've ever visited. Good job again, Look.

  • @ByteReview

    I was down the road at Langham Place in Mong Kok yesterday. Golly it’s hot there at the moment. I visited Sham Shui Po last time though, and it was great fun watching all the comb-over uncles searching through boxes of prehistoric second hand electronics. Kowloon is every bit as good as Hong Kong island for photo opportunities, and for street photography it’s probably one of the best places in the world. Really enjoying these videos Lok, thanks.

    • @TheLokCheung
      @TheLokCheung  6 років тому

      Today was the second hottest day in May every recorded in history! It's not normal to be so hot in May. Stay hydrated! Take rest and cool down in shopping malls, they are everywhere in Hong Kong!

    Lok, I've been using the X100T for almost 4 years now and I'm absolutely in love with it. How do you like your Fuji? Do you think it's good enough for a studio shoot?

      I’d guess they are very reasonable with a range from high end to dirt cheap! I can only guess as I know nothing about them! But generally this is what you’d expect from Apliu Street
