A picture in time: Skywatch Friday, Himmelsk

Skywatch Friday, Himmelsk

A Hong Kong high rise, reflecting the bright sun.

I was sitting on top of one of those Hop-on Hop-of busses,

soaking in Hong Kong, in blazing 34C/93F.

I couldn't sit downstairs, inside, in air conditioning,

with all the sensible people.

I had to take pictures!
