極夏移船 Moving the boat under extreme heat / 嶺大划艇 Lingnan University Rowing Team / 香港水上體育運動 Hong Kong Water Sports / SML.20130809.7D.49261

The 嶺大划艇 Lingnan University Rowing Team took their boat out from storage towards the docks to train for a university championship to be held on the next day.

 

When these boys walk towards me, I would have guessed that they were much younger. But then I noticed the sign on the boat, which reads “Lingnan University,” that’s when I realised that they were in fact university students in Hong Kong.

 

As they became aware of the camera, a few managed to make the defacto hand-sign in Asia—V for Victory. Personally I would have wished that they would just go about their own business, but I suppose it is very hard to not notice a giant telephoto lens pointing at them from just a few meters away…
