Sep 26: Lamma
Calendar-Worthy?
I missed the
submission deadline for the
Lamma Calendar 2019 yesterday. I
was just too busy with creating
12 photos/collages for an upcoming "In
Love With Lamma" exhibition with
3 other Lamma photographers I've
been invited to exhibit next
month.
At least one of my
photos has usually been featured
in the Lamma Calendar for
charity the last few years.
It'll start selling at the
Lamma Fun Day
on Oct 26.
Here are a few of
my former submissions, all
rejected? ;~}
Remembering Lamma-Por's gentle mother
(Lamma-Gung's mother-in-law).

Loved 1,000 Times
Many of my 1,548
Facebook Friends have been
generous in reacting to my
almost daily posts, almost all
of them Lamma-related and rarely
personal.
But even my most
popular posts (click above) have
never managed to surpass my
personal record of 13 Loves,
like the ferry returning to
Lamma past Pak Kok at sunset
above. Should start posting
puppy pics and cat videos?
Many of my posts
have far surpassed 100 Likes,
adding up to 35,000+ Likes so
far. Rarely ever got an Angry
reaction so far...

Mangkhut, the Most Powerful Typhoon Hitting HK
15,000+ major trees destroyed
all over HK, many decades old,
so many photos of flooding and
typhoon damage, this T10 typhoon
was definitely the most severe
since I moved to HK half a
lifetime ago.
In our hilltop rooftop flat,
exposed in all directions, we
feared the worst, but suffered
no breakages on our untaped windows and only minor
wet carpets. Village house
balcony doors are NOT waterproof
in horizontal rain and
windstorms of way beyond
100km/h.
My balcony jungle will
need a completely fresh start
and most banana trees all around
us are down, many paths
unpassable for days, including
both paths to YSW. But
overall, we were lucky and safe, truly
counting our blessings!
Many more photos, videos and
stories can be found in most of
the Lamma-related Facebook
groups, my
Lamma-Gung Timeline, including
flooding in YSW and Sok Kwu Wan
Main Streets and beyond;
including this, my favourite
photo of a daring but foolish,
still unidentified Lammaite
taking mobile photos/videos at
the Fisherman's Pier in YSW at
maximum tidal surge, about 1.5
meters above the yearly maximum
tide (which is exactly the top
of this now submerged pier).

Waiting for a T10
While taking pictures of the
sunset today - just ahead of T10
typhoon Mangkhut hitting HK - we
were meeting our new
next-rooftop neighbour doing the
same:
Welcome to Lamma, Euan
& family!
This just shows one of the
numerous reasons why most
passengers love the personal
service of the YSW-Pak
Kok-Aberdeen ferry service by
Tsui Wah Ferry.
The regular ferry had some
technical problems, so we got
treated to a private boat/little
ferry-style experience today.
