The Vatican Museums

梵蒂岡博物館

Part I

The Vatican Museums (Italian: Musei Vaticani), in Viale Vaticano in Rome, inside the Vatican City,

are among the greatest museums in the world, since they display works from the immense

 collection built up by the Roman Catholic Church throughout the centuries.

Pope Julius II founded the museums in the 16th century. The Sistine Chapel and the Stanze

della Segnatura decorated by Raphael are on the visitor route through the Vatican Museums.

梵蒂岡博物館（意大利語：Musei Vaticani）位於梵蒂岡城內，由羅馬梵蒂岡大道

（Viale Vaticano）可達。梵蒂岡博物館是世界上最偉大的博物館之一，

其中的藏品是多個世紀以來羅馬天主教會收集、積累的成果。

16世紀時，教皇儒略二世創建了博物館。遊客在遊覽梵蒂岡博物館時會經過由

拉斐爾裝飾的西斯廷禮拜堂和拉斐爾房間（Stanze di Raffaello）。

The Build 4 Asia tradeshow

Asian Building Technologies co-locating with Asian Building Interiors, Asian Elenex and Asian Securitex

 were staged on 2 – 4 June 2010 at the newly-expanded Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.

 The perfect partnership of 4 related biennial trade exhibitions attracted 497 exhibitors from 34 countries

 and 11,525 regional buyers at its last edition in 2008 and will continue to provide the ultimate

sourcing platform this year. Display will embrace a cross-section of new technology and equipment

 from across the globe ranging from building automation, building & facility management,

 lighting & interiors, electrical supply, transmission & distribution to security & safety.

Because of work, last Friday, I had to attend an exhibition with two of my work colleagues.

There were many displays there and these are the most interesting ones I photographed that day.

摩羅上街 Upper Lascar Row

在永利街和樓梯街之下還有一條很有特色的小街名為摩羅上街,

是這次去永利街的最大發現, 這條街有很多擺賣中式紀念品和陶瓷製品的商店和攤位。

如果喜歡攝影的朋友一定對這些色彩繽紛的精品十分喜愛, 因為可以可拍攝到不錯的效果,

而且這裡遊人不多, 還可以看到商店主人和老街坊的人生百態, 真是一條直得參觀的街道。

下次再來這裡, 除了拍照之外, 一定要買一些有趣的紀念品!

 

特別要說的就是Canon EOS 5D Mark II 配合Canon EF 135mm f/2.0 L USM 定焦鏡頭的

 

效果實在令我有好大的驚喜! 不論色彩, 銳利度和散景都達至最高水準, 真的很滿意!

 

 

Under the Wing Lee Street and Ladder Street is a very characteristic street called Upper Lascar Row,

It was the biggest discorver when we went to Wing Lee Street. This street has a lots

 of Chinese souvenirs and ceramics in the shops and the stalls. If you like to shooting some photos,

these colorful handicrafts can give you a very nice effect. Moreover haven' t many tourists here,

you can also see the routine life of the store owners and the old neighbors, is really worth to visit this street.

If I come here again, besides to taking pictures, must buy some interesting souvenirs!

 

Particularly want to say that the images qualities of Canon EOS 5D Mark II with

 

Canon EF 135mm f/2.0 L USM prime lens are superb, it is indeed a big surprise!

 

Regardless of colors, sharpness and bokeh, both are reached the highest level, I am really very satisfied!
