Life on these fishing boat junks and freighters is a family affair.
It's the only home the Chinese boat people had.

Yes, cool capture indeed, a true Shugartian gem! Though, if I might be so bold as to make a suggestion, the bottom of the picture doesn't add much value IMHO. My brief attempt at cropping it out seemed promising. What say you?

With all your pics, it's hard to believe that we all live on the same planet.

Thanks Jonathan, Phil, Bob and Douglas.
Yes, the world is very varied

, and Hong Kong wasn't the most alien place I traveled- for sure.
I was once on a several-day-long bus journey from Peshewar, Pakistan to Istanbul, Turkey, and saw some REALLY odd things. It was a through bus, however, so I had no time to explore, and I wasn't into photography at the time, so I have few photos of the experience. But some memories remain.
About the crop- I agree. But I hate to lose all those dangling ropes on the lower right, so here's a partial crop.
I do like it better than the original.
Charlie
