Never Disappoint

Lantau Island, Hong Kong view map

I originally planned to hike the top of Lantau Peak (934m) for shooting sunrise.
Unfortunately, cloudbanks covered the peak in that early morning.
I followed my contingency plan and went to an adjacent mountain of 751m.
On the way I found this beautiful scenery, a cityscape inside a landscape.

Hi CM,
This is truly amazing! What a fabulous evening scene. This is a picture I could look at forever. (And for a bit I thought I was going to because it didn't want to let me post a message for some reason Pbase can do so strange things lately) \/
