Street Photography in Mongkok, Hong Kong: A Day with the Sony A6700
Mongkok baked under the afternoon sun, trapped by skyscrapers over the urban area street. The sidewalk was jammed with pedestrians. One woman, hair up, struggled with bulky luggage & bags in sensible shoes. Fumes and food smells mingled; fast food competed with market produce and ingredients. A man in trousers rested on a parked car. Nearby, a child enjoyed an ice cream cone near a temple, oblivious. The chaos, from quick arm movements to shining footwear, was Mongkok’s intense, moving story.
