Textures of Hong Kong

What can textures tell you about a place? While I was in Hong Kong, I hiked around the peak parks to get a different perspective of the city; a place where natural and man made coexist.

 I was surprised to see familiar things like Moss in such bright colors.

The passing of time

New frontiers 

Man made and natural, living in harmony.

Spiders are beautiful.

While I do have a heightened sense of concern around them, spiders are something I have always enjoyed. They are a kingdom of creatures with tools of great sophistication (webs, venoms etc) how could you not appreciate them? The top one is one I found in Singapore, they're all over the jungles, intimidating in appearance but rather docile. They one below is an Orb Weaver from the Bay Area.
