Here are my pics taken at the new Central Ferry Pier. This was also the first SSC meetup that I've ever attended. It was really great meeting forum legends: Rachmaninov, chisinchai, Kaitak747, Aboveday and hkskyline.

I expected hkskyline to be a rich businessman with a private jet or airline company... and that's not far from the truth :).

Thanks to Rachmaninov for organizing everything.

This is the widest shot I could take... compare this one with the photo taken by chisinchai!

If you look really closely, you can see Rach + Kaitak747 in the red and green shirts!!!

I'm leaving in a day or so and probably won't be able to return for a few years.
Next time I come back to HK will be in the distant future. Nina Tower will continue to have green mesh :) and ICC will be the new tallest building. I will definitely try to catch up with you guys again. Hopefully we can take a new group picture there! :cheers:

I've got to attend one of these things one of these days. I can't imagine what hkskyline is like in real life.

BTW, great pictures, skybean! What kind of camera do you use?

I love your night shots, Skybean. Keep them coming...I can imagine being there right now.

How long have you been in HK? I believe you've had more than my measly two weeks...which flew by.

Sorry, I can't post any people pictures. But really, the forumers are a good-looking bunch.

BTW, great pictures, skybean! What kind of camera do you use?

I use a Canon S3 IS. Nothing special really. I really bought it for the 12x zoom and image stabilization. It should be really cheap now.. the next version S5 is out already. During the time I bought it, it was only slightly more expensive than most other 3X zoom digicams that you can buy. So I thought it was a good investment. It serves me quite well, but sometimes I wish I could swap lenses for wider shots. Wide angle adapters are too expensive.

Thanks for your compliments. I've been here for 4 months! I'm leaving tomorrow :(
