The Peak Emerges

November 18,2011

Hong Kong Island pictorial photo. Photos having the elements such as morning light, fog and clouds, and light rain were typically called “pictorial photos”. This photo is a shot of the foggy Victoria Peak taken from the cross-harbour ferry. The air currents at the heights created a layering effect in the clouds, and another ferry was used as the foreground in the picture. It shows the outline of Hong Kong Island in the early years.
