Looking at views, wildlife and street scenes.

There's been something very appealing about the light here recently. As I make my way to work, the sun is still rising, adding patches of colour to the sky and sea.

After the children went home from school today, I decided to venture right up to the top floor of our school - a place I never go as it belongs to another section of the school - and to take some photos of the views over Victoria Harbour.

Later on the walk down from school to North Point MTR station, we saw a huge wild boar. I didn't get great photos as he was snuffling in the bushes and his head was hidden, but I wasn't going any closer. He happily just ignored us.

Later we saw more peaceful wildlife in the form of pigeons by a waterfall.

The waterfall is pretty on rainy days.
Making my way to the ferry, I passed through the IFC which was once the tallest building in Hong Kong until the ICC overtook it (they love abbreviations here). I suddenly realized Christmas is on the way.

At the moment we are swimming every day as our outdoor pools close on Sunday. We want to make the most of the remaining days. The flowers above the pool are very beautiful and I couldn't resist photographing them.
