The ongoing protests here in Hong Kong is somewhat old news now. Generally, things are back to normal –or as normal as can be, with some of the roads still ‘occupied,’ causing traffic problems. If nothing else, what’s come out of these protests are some very interesting art. If you visit the occupied sites, you’ll see many, many of these and much, much more.

That first one just reached out and grabbed me! Together they convey such emotion. Your color processing accentuates that perfectly. I love when people use art to communicate.
My favorites are the first two shots. Glad things have calmed dwon some.

This is my first time to visit from Kim's site.
My favorite is the photo of the little colored umbrellas (the first shot). Great documentation of this time in the history of Hong Kong.
Sharon, that's great idea to document.
Thank you for sharing this. It's these little pieces of every day struggles and demonstrations with dignity that I so value about the internet. Umbrella Revolution.
this post gives a whole new definition to "street art".
dear singwa, you have brought news to us in so many ways through your blog and i am more than grateful for a humane view of it. more than art, this is current events from the heart and eye of a spectator...you, my love, are a photo-journalist in it's purest form.
