Offering Joss Sticks At the Gate of Tin Hau Temple, Lei Yue Mun 三家村天后廟上香

Offering Joss Sticks At the gate of Tin Hau Temple, Lei Yue Mun

Sitting in front of this Tin Hau Temple (temple of the goddess of the sea), I sketched a friend standing in front of a joss stick tripod.  Behind her was the Saam Ka Village, a village built along the shoreline at the entrance to Victoria Harbour.  On the right was a rocky cliff adorned with two rusty ancient cannons facing the sea.

三家村天后廟位處維多利亞港東面海口。廟旁一石崖前放了兩支古砲。一位畫友則站香鑪前上香。
