Luckily, Kiko was with me during this eclipse and was able to take some great pictures of the people watching with us. You can see here how dark it actually gets. Her little point-and-shoot Olympus actually did a pretty good job taking a pictures of the eclipse too.

We saw it! Despite the clouds and predictions of thunderstorms here in Hangzhou today, we were lucky enough for the clouds to part just long enough for us to see the amazing total solar eclipse from a great location at the Hyatt Hotel on the West Lake.

Here is a video of the Total Solar Eclipse in Hangzhou China, 2009. The video isn't as clear as the one I took in Egypt in 2006; however, the cloud cover here actually made for a cooler-looking video I think.

2008 NTDTV Chinese New Year Spectacular in Los Angeles

Los Angeles, California in International China

Last year, I was in Los Angeles in January and saw the NTDTV Chinese New Year Spectacular advertised in my hometown. I was in the middle of trying to absorb as much about China as I could so I decided to attent. Maybe I'm spoiled or maybe I'm jaded, but the show just wasn't what I expected...

Hong Kong Game Fair 2007
Added on 2007-07-27 by Gary Isse
Hong Kong, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in South China
Video: Photos:
Yesterday I decided that it was about time I head to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center to watch this famous sunset I have been hearing so much about. Apparently, the view from the 7th floor is an amazing site not to be missed. To my surprise when I arrived, there was a pretty big commotion with tons of photographers and people in costumes everywhere so I had to take a few minutes to stop and see what all the fuss was about. Apparently, this weekend is the Hong Kong Game Fair and video game junkies from all over Asia gathered to check out the latest and greatest in gaming and pay respects to their favorite video game characters. I took some photos and videos that I thought I would share with you. Unfortunately, I wasn't very prepared for this and my camera ran out of batteries so many of these are taken with my phone. The video is also on my Nokia N93, which I haven't figured out how to edit yet, so as soon as I do, I'll post those for you to see. This was actually pretty funny. Up until now, except for Homer Simpson, I've never heard a grown man drool before. Enjoy!

2007 Fireworks Spectacular Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the Hong Kong Handover to China

Today I had a great time celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the handover of Hong Kong to China from Great Britain. Although I have a ton of video including a spectacular parade, and a pro-democracy rally, I thought I would share this one with you first. It's a short video of the most amazing fireworks show I've ever seen which was taken from the Aqualuna boat in Victoria Harbor. As you can see both the fireworks and lasers were choreographed amongst many building surrounding the harbor and played to music. I can't quite keep the camera still considering I'm on a boat but it's still a great video to watch.

2007 Hong Kong Pro-Democracy Rally During 10th Anniverary of Handover to China

What better way to celebrate the return to rule by a communist government then with a Pro-Democracy Rally? Here's a quick video of the 2007 Pro-Democracy Rally in Hong Kong during the 10th Anniversary Celebration of the Handover of Hong Kong to China. Unfortunately it was so humid that day that my good video camera wouldn't work so I had to shoot this with my panasonic photo camera's video function. The audio is a bit tough to make out but it's still worth a gander.
