Bauhinia variegata (Orchid Tree)
Made by guzhengman
Common name: Orchid Tree 宮粉羊蹄甲 Family: Fabaceae 豆科 Sub-family: Caesalpinoideae 蘇木亞科 Origin: Southeast Asia Location: Lai Chi Kok Park a large upright tree with glossy deep green pinnate leaves and glorious orange scarlet flowers. It may grow to 80 ft (24.4 m) on an ideal site, but most specimens are much smaller. The tree has a stout, tapering, somewhat buttressed trunk covered in warty light gray bark. The lateral branches are short and thick. The 1-2 ft (0.3-0.6 m) long opposite leaves, which emerge a bronzy color, are massed at the ends of the branches. They are composed of 5-19 deeply veined oval leaflets. The horn shaped velvety olive buds appear in upturned whorls at the branch tips. A few at a time, the buds of the lowest tier bend outward and open into big crinkled red orange tuliplike bells with red streaked gold throats, frilly yellow edges, and four brown-anthered stamens in the center. They are followed by 5-10 in (12.7-25.4 cm) green brown fingerlike pods pointing upwards and outwards above the foliage. Each of these pods contains about 500 tissue papery seeds. The tree flowers in spurts all through the growing season, but peak bloom is usually in the spring. 'Aurea' is a rare cultivar with yellow to orange flowers and tends to be a smaller tree.

Wellcome (Chinese: 惠康 in Hong Kong; 頂好 in Taiwan) is a supermarket chain owned by Jardine Matheson Holdings via its Dairy Farm subsidiary. The Wellcome supermarket chain is one of the two largest supermarket chains in Hong Kong, the other being PARKnSHOP. Wellcome also operates supermarkets in Taiwan under the Wellcome name. Founded in 1945, Wellcome is Hong Kong's longest-established supermarket chain. The correct spelling of the name of the supermarket should be Wellcome (double L), instead of the English greeting Welcome (single L). 惠康（英语：Wellcome）是香港最大型及歷史最悠久的連鎖超級市場，由怡和集團旗下牛奶國際全資擁有，至今有超過250間分店，遍佈全港，其主要對手是另一連鎖超級市場集團百佳。 除香港外，亦在1987年於台灣成立「惠康百貨股份有限公司」，2007年於越南成立「Giant South Asia﹝Vietnam﹞ Ltd.」，經營「頂好 Wellcome」及「X-mart」2個連鎖超級市場品牌。 Hong Kong • 香港 '10
Another Busy Night In Hong Kong
Made by Steve Webel
It still amazes how busy the streets of Hong Kong are, even late at night! I captured this shot in one of the residential neighborhoods known as Mei Foo (美孚新邨). It was the largest privately owned housing complex when it was first built in the 70's. (The 99 tower complex can house up to 60,000 people!) --- Camera: Nikon D80 Exposure: 10 sec (10) Aperture: f/14 Focal Length: 35 mm ISO Speed: 100 Exposure Bias: 0/6 EV ---
