A knee to the ground.
A hand raised to the sky.
Two friends turning the walkway into a small stage,
where affection looked like play
and play felt like trust.

A Symphony of Lights (幻彩詠香江) is a daily light and sound show across the Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong, beginning at 8:00PM for about 10 minutes.
She leans into the rail, letting the harbor take the weight of her thoughts.
The water moves steadily beside her, textured with small waves and scattered light, offering no answers—only space. Her gaze stays low, not searching the horizon, but listening inward, as if the tide knows what to hold and what to carry away.
The city hums behind her, unseen but present, while the water keeps her secrets—patient, reflective, and unchanged by what it is asked to bear.
The harbour shimmered behind her in a thousand bright fragments
as she lifted her phone toward the sun—
eyes closed,
face softened,
as if the warmth itself were something
she wanted to hold onto
for just a little longer.

More wandering around Melbourne on Sunday. Some nice photo opportunities around the renovated dockland area known as Victoria Harbour.
She rested there with her weight forward,
watching boats come and go,
as if waiting for something unnamed.
Behind the playful shape beneath her arms
was a stillness that felt real—
the kind that asks nothing,
only time.

Deep Bay Marina is a well-known harbour situated on the east coast of Vancouver Island in the Lighthouse Country region, north of Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, Canada. It is a sheltered port popular with boaters exploring the Strait of Georgia, the Gulf Islands, and Desolation Sound.
The marina provides essential services, including protected moorage (both transient and permanent), power, water, and washroom facilities. It is also notable for its proximity to the Deep Bay Marine Field Station (a Vancouver Island University marine research station) and to rich salmon fishing grounds, making the area a hub for fishing and marine education.
She leaned into the railing
as the old junk drifted past—
its dark hull slipping through the harbour’s haze
like a memory returning from another time.
Wind tangled her hair,
the city rose behind her in softened silhouettes,
and for a moment she carried the look
of someone caught between where she was going
and what she wasn’t ready to leave.
Blue hour along Victoria Harbour, Tsim Sha Tsui, as the city lights of Hong Kong begin to glow. The Peninsula Hong Kong, opened in 1928 and long known as the “Grand Old Dame of the Orient.” A symbol of colonial-era elegance, the hotel remains one of the city’s most iconic landmarks, standing in graceful contrast to the modern skyline that now surrounds it.
I’m standing on the TST promenade in Hong Kong at 6:04 in the morning, way earlier than I’d ever crawl out of bed back home, but travel days do weird things to my alarm clock. The harbor water sits still enough to catch the skyline’s glow, and a few joggers puff past while I fiddle with my camera. Apart from them, I only spot one other guy—looks local—quietly lining up his own shots. The air is cool, the city’s just waking. Not bad for being up before most people have their first coffee.
The harbour glowed like a path of broken mirrors,
and she paused mid-step,
as if listening for something
only the water could tell her.

Christ Church Cathedral is the principal Anglican church (episcopal seat) of the Diocese of British Columbia, which covers Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands in Canada.
Located in the heart of Victoria, the capital of British Columbia, it is an imposing example of Gothic Revival architecture. The stone construction began in the early 20th century and was completed in several phases (the nave in 1929 and the western towers in the 1950s, with final completion in 1991).
The Cathedral is known for its majestic scale, its stained-glass windows, and its role as a centre for worship and community, as well as being a significant historical and architectural landmark in the city.
Hong Kong West Kowloon waterfront lit up at night domiated by the International Commerce Centre. Long exposure gives a silky smooth sea.
A lone girl stands along the Hong Kong waterfront, wrapped in winter light and a coat that seems a size too hopeful. Behind her, the skyline dissolves into haze—glass and metal stacked like unfinished thoughts—while the harbor glitters with the kind of brightness that makes you squint at your own longing.
There’s a stillness in the way she holds herself, as if she’s waiting for someone or deciding whether to keep walking. Her shadow stretches toward the camera like a question, soft and unhurried, out of place against the fevered pulse of the city behind her.
Sometimes Hong Kong roars.
Sometimes it whispers.
Today, it chose silence.
