I was recently introduced to Blackie, a nifty black and white photo mobile app, with which I’ve been having lots of fun experimenting. I love the film simulations and manual controls which allow for extensive image customisation.
Below are 10 photos of everyday moments in Hong Kong, edited with Blackie. While these were taken over the past two weeks, I’ve presented them as I imagine them happening over the course of an ordinary week day.
Inspired by my current environment, I’ve included captions in traditional Chinese alongside the English ones. As Chinese is not my forte, do pardon me if some of the lines could be better!
I hope you’ll enjoy this brief monochrome journey into my Hong Kong.
Enjoyed? No … i LOVED this brief monochromatic journey into your Hong Kong! Thank you so much for sharing these, Angelina. I really do feel as if I’ve been there with you. (And also: It’s wonderful to see you here. Hope you’ve been well!)
Thanks Heather! 🙂 I’ve been well and am enjoying myself in HK. So much life here!
Lovely photos. Hope you’ve settled into HK well!
Thank you! Yup, it’s almost three months since I moved to HK and am enjoying being in HK 🙂
Wow!
I’ve been away. What happened? We want to move back to HK
Hello! We had enough of Brussels and HK was our first choice for our next move. I then found a job in HK et voilà! I’ve been here for four months and enjoying being here.
Why the desire to move back to HK? I’ve been busy settling into our new home and my new job so have not been keeping up with writing nor reading blogs. I had a good chuckle when I read some of your recent posts 😉
Good photos, you managed to give as the feeling to be in the middle of such a special place!

Great! You have transformed daily activities into art 🙂 I can feel the emotion of people in your pictures
Thank you!
I miss HK.
