This is a black and white street photo in landscape format of buildings in the an older part of the city. North Point, Hong Kong (2013).

The camera is raised upwards slightly and angled along a street, so much of the opposite of the road is in view, other than the ground floor. In the foreground are two overhead street signs with Chinese characters on squares running horizontally across these long signs. The first sign, with about 2m in view and stretching across the image near the top, has large white characters on a black background. The second sign, stretching across the middle of the photo, perhaps 3m long, has large black characters on a white background. Behind these tired street signs is a low-rise facade of an older mixed-use Hong Kong urban building that extends away from the camera some 30m. There is no symmetry to the building, other than a very weathered, tired and stained exterior. Some of the apartments or businesses have balconies, some have windows, some open, some closed. Some have randomly placed external air conditioning units, some have washing outside. Occasionally a small piece of vegetation is seen heroically attempting to thrive in this dystopian, tropical (most of the year) urban jungle.
