Mistical Fog






1st February HK

First thing I saw this morning when I woke up  -- What an amazing  foggy view! 
Even with the high humidity day in Hong Kong, I've never seen such a view for  my last 20 something years. Thou my return to HK from London ( exactly 2 years now )

I began to understand of how some of my friends/ strangers from London used to say to me (  whose haven't travel to China yet ),  their image of China is very misty. It's because of  they are often seeing the Chinese paintings or drawings from museums , showing these classical black & white stokes painting with mountains, waterfalls, mist, lotus flower  and few lines of poetries come with the paintings / drawings .


2 images below that I found  & borrowed  from online (cannot remember of which sites) are typical Chinese paintings / drawings:  ( not my favorite paintings, but it represents of what I want to describe for )
