B747-400M | Asiana Airlines | HL7423 | VHHH

            Isn't the Boeing 747 such a wonderful aircraft? 

It certainly is to me, and this is one of my most favourite angles to photograph it.

This is flight ASIANA 722 which just left Hong Kong soil after departing runway 07R, beginning its home-run back to Seoul/ICN.

Visible in the background are two local fishing boats, as well as on the lower left, the top of HKIA's main ATC Tower.

Apologies for the low quality of this photo, it was a long distance shot under challenging circumstances!
