Danny Choo of dannychoo.com came to town from Tokyo and Dollfie World organized a little get-together. I went to take photo with him I am a fan of his blog.

Danny prepping his daughter.

I realized there are two groups of fans attending. One is the dollfie fans. They brought their daughters out to show off. The other is the fan of his blog which I am in that category.

Why? For me, stunning photos. Next, Life motivation story on his photo walk category. Some of those stories bring tear to my eyes. One of my favorite was photo walk 5. I have bookmarked it and read it every now and then.

James Cameron talked about his journey as movie maker and lesson learned. I like what he said ‘Failure is an option but Fear is not’. Like he is talking to me….

If you want to find antique stuff, Upper Lascar Row (摩羅上街) and the vicinity of Hollywood Road are the best area for it.

On Ladder Street (樓梯街) & Vicinity

No Comments »

We were bumming around Sheung Wan to check some antique stuff and we came upon a street called Ladder Street.

Man Mo temple on Hollywood Road.

This is called Ladder Street. I know… It’s not a street but just a staircase. You see this a lot…from Central to Sheung Wan. I was once lost looking for a street called Pottinger Street. Took me 20 minutes to look for it. It was not a street. It a stretch of staircase. Same as this one.

_MG_7210

The surrounding has a lot old buildings and this one look so nostalgic.
