Even without knowing what this sign says, it says it all! We’ve got some costumes going on at Gamil today, including a couple who are “here for the Frankenstein wedding,” Little Red Riding Hood, and Galaxy Girl. We’ve also got a coupla painters who are very authentic, as they are actually painting the gallery wall for a big product launch party we’re having Friday night. More on that soon…
Anyway, Happy Halloween!!

Supposedly, we will have an interesting picture to use each day. That is our intent, but we’ll see if life is really that visually interesting for the Gamil folks… Anyway, we will have apost each day as well which shows the whole Picture of the Day. That way, it will be archivable and able to see a large batch of old ones at a time…

So here they are so far:

Today, October 10, is lamps hanging in the designer dining lounge at Dragon-I on Wyndham Street, Hong Kong

October 9 picture is bird cages from the Bird Garden in MongKok, Hong Kong

October 8 picture is the designer Alain Mikli, eyeglasses shop on Hollywood Road, Hong Kong
