60: Incense
60: Incense, originally uploaded by Snap Happy Ria.
I have decided to upload some of my older pics of Hong Kong because of two reasons: (1) I think some pics I have in my archive are pretty good and (2) I haven’t taken any new pictures lately.
The photo above was taken in Man Mo Temple, one of the oldest temples in Hong Kong (built in 1847!). I was a little uneasy snapping photos, I felt that I was desecrating the place being all touristy. Fortunately, a busload of tourists from Japan and a couple of cabs filled with white people arrived and started taking pictures as indiscriminately as me.
I therefore proved one theory: the feeling of guilt diminishes as the number of people doing the deed increases.

May I suggest ‘white people’ be changed to ‘Caucasians”
