Lift-Off

This is a new tower under construction on the Hong Kong waterfront near the Star Ferry Pier. Climbing to the roof of the Star Ferry carpark (there are stairs -- I wasn't suffering for my art here), I lined up a yellow street lamp in the lower right to give it a little ignition, tilted the building to a sub-orbital angle, made sure there were clouds in the background for atmosphere and here you go.
     Time passes... the International Finance Centre 2 -- IFC 2, for short -- is now complete and is the tallest building in Hong Kong.
