view from the top

{Victoria Peak, Hong Kong - September 2009}

Spectacular view. But taking this shot was not an easy feat. With the super strong wind blowing, the tripod I brought along specifically for this shot was of little help in taking a non-blurry picture because the wind still shook it. Not to mention finding the perfect settings for the picture. I was trying my best to find the suitable setting for taking the pic when a Japanese tourist, also bringing his DSLR, helped me. At first we did not understand each other because he only spoke Japanese but with the help of sign language and a lot of pointing in our respective cameras he was able to help me with my settings and even offered to take a couple of pics of me. He was just the sweetest. Makes me think, I must be really good coz God kept giving me helpful strangers during my trip:)
