if your’e a Global Soul thrown this way and that by the global marketplace – you dwell in a kind of floating International Settlement where you never have to worry that 98 percent of the people around you can’t understand a word you say. The word for foreigner in Hong Kong, gwei-lo, famously means ‘ghost.’
― Pico Iyer, The Global Soul

I like the light!
Love the signs
Nice night shot! Love the complementary colors of the signs and the framing. My curiosity is piqued; I wonder what the differences in the two shops are.
Most interesting, Michael. Maybe we’re all ghosts in this world of ours?! In the meantime, keep taking these street scenes that tell us so much.
nice colorfull street shot
Very cool shot sir. Like the color in this and the gritty wet feel.
Street scenes are so special at night. I like the signs and love the wet streets.
Great shot.
I bet if I will travel to Hong Kong I might see ghosts….
