This is a portrait orientation view taken while standing in the middle of a street in Hong Kong. We're looking along the street where skyscrapers tower overhead, mos of their tops not visible to us because it's so cramped here, and with more skyscrapers ahead leaving over a chunk of pale, clear blue sky overhead. As you'd expect much of the lower area here is in shade although there is sunshine immediately in front of us across half of a pedestrian crossing which is host to a large number of people crossing in either direction. The crossing itself is a series of widely-spaced yellow bars painted on the concrete. Behind the people crossing we can see a bus, a car, and a bike heading away from us about to pass under a pedestrian bridge over the road connecting two of the buildings either side. Signs on the lower floors of the skyscrapers to the left and right are in English and Chinese characters. The people are in a mix of business clothing and more casual attire suitable for the warm day. It's a little claustrophobic but full of energy.
#FotoVorschlag (photo theme) - Urban Jungle
The epitome of the urban jungle, found in the streets of Hong Kong Island from our 2018 visit there. There's an intense energy from this crowded concrete wonderland that we loved.
