Looks like such an amazing place! I especially love the composition of #2

I might just be a little crooked, but the horizon in #1 seems a little higher on the right...is this intentional?

Beautiful shots!

Thanks!

not crooked at all I was thinking about this myself ... actually the lens was not perfect, nor was the perspective. so I have the problem of the verticals not being parallel.
I decided for the tall building on the left to be exactly vertically aligned since it is the largest ... that leaves the buildings on the far right slightly tilted

maybe I should heavily postprocess ...

That first shot is a jawdropper...I love the lighting, and the tones. With the combination of the skyscrapers, the boat traffic and the hills in the background, it's like a one-shot encapsulation of how I imagine Hong Kong to be. I hope to see it myself someday. Thanks for sharing.

maybe I'll post a more complete series one day, with some street life as well ...

4 is definetly my fav, light and flags are nice, composition very good

I am not too much fan of the other;
1 is good too but too classical for my taste

Anyway good job

I really like the first and fourth, as Antarctican said the first is a jaw dropper and I love the movement in the fourth from the flags

I love number 1, great job

The more I look at the first one though, the more I think I have to do something about the horizon!
