Hong Kong 24 Hours for the Special Forces Photographer

I really, really, really love Hong Kong, which is an endless treasure trove for photography enthusiasts. During a business trip to Hong Kong, I happened to have half a day of free time, so I checked out a few classic spots. I'm sharing these to give a reference for ordinary photography enthusiasts with limited time. ✅1. Renaissance Hong Kong Harbour View Hotel (Photos 234) If you have a sufficient budget, you can choose this hotel to experience it. You can capture the morning of Hong Kong without stepping out. ✅2. Victoria Harbour, Star Ferry If you like walking, you can come out from the B2 exit of the Convention and Exhibition Station, first go to the Golden Bauhinia Square, and then walk along the coastline. The Hong Kong Arts Centre is also nearby to visit. ✅3. Sai Ying Pun Des Voeux Road (Photo 6) ❗️❗️It's quite difficult for mobile phone users to take a good shot. Exit B2 of Sai Ying Pun is suitable for street photography, but you also need a telephoto lens to capture the sea and buildings in the same frame, and the light contrast is very high, with the background sea easily overexposed and the foreground buildings underexposed. ✅4. Kennedy Town (Photo 11) Take the MTR Island Line to Kennedy Town Station, exit C, turn left and go up the stairs to the basketball court, where the crowd is, that's the spot. However, this place requires a focal length of over 100, ❗️❗️and it's very difficult for ordinary mobile phones to get a good shot, plus the view is blocked by trees, and without a telephoto lens, you can't capture it. ✅5. Kennedy Town New Praya (Photo 89) After shooting at location 4 above, navigate to % Coffee. The seaside here doesn't have the angle for sunset, but the halo of the setting sun is still very atmospheric, and it's mobile-friendly. If you know any other great spots in Hong Kong, feel free to share in the comments~
