Banyan Tree, Rocks, Tin Hau Temple and Victoria Harbour 天后廟、大石、大榕樹同維多利亞港



It was a fine sunny day at Sam Ka Village at the eastern entrance to Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour.    The entwining roots of this banyan tree growing on the rocky cliff were a joy to sketch!  This Tin Hau Temple (Tin Hau is the goddess of the sea and is widely worshipped in Hong Kong) is also a special one as part of the temple actually stands in the water.  The temple, the rocks, the Banyan tree and the winding waterfront trail together they formed an interesting composition. 

今日同一班畫友前往鯉魚門三家村天后廟速寫。此天后廟特別之處在於佢身處維多利亞港東面鯉魚門入口,廟部份結構建在海上。天后廟旁邊大石上有一棵大榕樹,榕樹根系縱橫交錯。天后廟、大石、大榕樹同海邊小徑形成有趣的構圖。
