This was a Chinese/Western medicine shop in Hong Kong that I passed by. When there is a cacophony of foreign smells, sounds, colors, light, and objects that inundate the senses, my eye tends to first focus on the familiar–people. After that, big colorful signs, particularly since the Chinese on those signs are old familiar friends of mine. As I explore further, I begin to see the jars in the back and the strange packages that sit on the street-side tables.

3 March 2012 -- Thousands of people marched to the offices of the Hong Kong city government on Saturday, demanding that outgoing chief executive Donald Tsang stand trial following allegations of ethics violations in his dealings with businessmen.
Organizers said more than 5,000 participated in Saturday's march, but local police estimated about 2,800 turned up at Victoria Park, the site of Hong Kong's annual Tiananmen vigil and where the protest started.
Hong Kong returned to Chinese rule in 1997 amid promises of a high degree of autonomy. But China's leaders have kept grip over political and administrative elite from behind the scenes.
The city's seven million people can elect some legislative and district council members, but have no direct vote for their top leader, who is selected by a 1,200-strong election committee comprised largely of business leaders and Beijing loyalists.

Between 2009 and 2011, Deta’s 2 DC-10Fs were a common sight in Hong Kong.
This was actually the inaugural departure for Deta Air Cargo in HKG. We photographed the inaugural arrival a few days prior!
