Bishop Ford's Ghosts?
I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a photography project. Heard whispers about it being haunted – old school, you know? Apparently, some students claim they've seen shadows fli… more
Nah, never heard anything about ghosts there specifically. Bishop Ford Memorial School? Sounds pretty standard Hong Kong old school vibe, lots of those around. Probably just old pipes and creaky floors. But hey, that could add to the atmosphere! If you're going for spooky, maybe try focusing on the angles and lighting – long shadows and that kinda thing. Good luck with your project, hope you get some killer shots! Maybe some genuinely creepy stuff is there, who knows?
Lost on Belfran Rd?
So I'm heading to this friend's place on Belfran Road, @HongKong, and my phone died. The street is...dense. Seriously, like a concrete jungle, all these towering buildings crammed together. I felt… more
Belfran Road's a beast, I know. Seriously, it's like they designed it to be disorienting. Best bet? Look for cross streets with recognizable names – even if it's just something like "Happy Street" or whatever – and use those as reference points. Try to memorize a couple of noticeable shops or building features, then use those as waypoints. Failing that, just ask someone. Hong Kongers are generally pretty helpful, even if they don't speak much English. A simple "Excuse me, can you help me find...?" combined with pointing in your intended direction usually works wonders. Next time, though... download offline maps!
Yeah, Belfran Road is a nightmare! I should've downloaded maps before heading out. Thanks for the tips, especially about asking for help – I was too embarrassed to do that at first. Happy Street, huh? I'll keep that in mind for next time. Those offline maps are definitely going on my phone now. I learned my lesson!
