caption_attribution_description: Pak Kok on Lamma Island, Hong Kong. The village lies in a little valley between the hills and the sea (Lamma Channel), and in 1992/3 consisted of clumps of houses dotted among the fields, occupied by a mix of commuters and farmers. A farmer carries water for his market garden crops and a typical bamboo basket for taking them to market lies on its side in the field. Overhead, electricity and telephone lines drape casually. The houses at the bottom of the valley, some of which are derelict, make up Pak Kok Kau Tsuen (old village): a typical new three-storey house can be seen slightly higher up. View facing south, taken 1992/3 on Fuju film.
