The World is a big picture ....... It depends on your eyes
how you see the picture.
If you have square eyes - photography is endless.
Nature macro photography is my passion.
Everyone can take a photo with a macro lens standing 10 feet away and after crop the photo.
However this is not my definition on a macro photo. I prefer to fill the frame with the object as much as possible.
Working in the limit of the macro lens’s minimum working distance with/without tubes and converters is very extreme photography - many times with very low light and moving objects.
The magnification on some photos can be more than 8,5 times and still keeping the ratio.
Protect the Globe
There is no escape
Keep Hong Kong clean and protect the environment !!!!
Would you like to learn about the GREEN Hong Kong then visit Hong Kong Outdoor
If you have NO photos on Flickr please do not use favorite. I prefer my photos been viewed in my stream and not on a collectors site.
Please – Do not invite me to groups with more than max 1 comment.
There are so many groups on Flickr and I find groups with 2 or more comments per uploaded photo is too much. As many other Flickr members agree the quality of comments in those groups are very low.
I do not join Flickr to get thousands of comments but to share what I see through my lens when I’m visiting some of the few green spots in Hong Kong or other places in the world.

After my early retirement I had the possibility to move from Denmark to Hong Kong.
I have been visiting Hong Kong frequently with my Chinese wife and our children since 1980.
I want to show you that Hong Kong is more than concrete and shopping malls.
You can also view photos from my tours to different provinces in China.

Help to save the Rain forest - It will help you and your children to get a better place to live. The people living in the rain forest have the right to live there and they do not want to live the way we do. Respect their traditions and do not destroy their environment. Do NOT buy wood-furniture from the rain forest. If the furniture do not have an origin-label or certificate of origin - please do NOT buy it.
The rain forest is so amazing!!!!
Protect the Globe - there is no escape!!!
Thanks for your visit!!!

Victor Bautista says:
"I am glad I found the photo stream of Mr. Steen Heilesen. His work features wonderful flora and fauna that I have never thought ever existed in Hong Kong. His images are of very good quality, vivid colours, unusually beautiful composition and apparently a showcase of patience and outstanding skill. He is an ambassador of Hong Kong because of his work. Enjoy the wonders of nature through the eyes of Mr. Steen Heilesen!"
