Took a pre-Christmas dinner buffet at Clippers Lounge. With this new lens 17-40mm F.4, you can see more fine details of the bread wrapping cloth, the tiny scratches of the butter plate, the tiny bits chilli of Tabasco on the live oyster, nice pink meat color of the slow roast prime rib (only slow roasting would result in this pink color). Skip to photo no. 8 - the devil pancake in orange sauce with perfect marmalade! Next is the hot Christmas wine (red wine with cinnamon) - so nice after a full meal. MO always makes superb coffee, even iced! *Below photos haven't been processed with Lightroom.

Comparing these photos with the new lens and others food photos that you have taken before. It's easy to see the difference. The color, contrast and the sharpness and these are also SOOC (straight out of camera) without post processing. Mouth watering.
After trying for a while, I found out something and may need to study and compare the old and new lens. Will report later. :)
Dear In The Sky,
On behalf of Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong, my name is Geoff, responsible for our E-Commerce & Social Media for our hotel property.
I would like to use this opportunity to thank you for your write up on your recent visit to The Clipper Lounge and wonderful photos indeed.
Once again, thank you for your visit and we look forward to welcome you back to our hotel very soon.
Yours Sincerely
Geoffrey Wu
Wow, these photos show all the details so well. I can even see the water drops from the iced coffee.
Hi Geoffrey Wu,
Please note everything from MO is so good; the food, the service and the people. We are all fans of MO. Our leader is "In the Sky/In the Sea".
Stella, if I didn't act like a devil to lure Pixmation to buy a DSLR, I wouldn't come to this point indeed. I have to actually thank Pixmation for all of his inspirations and yet his straight comments from a third person point of view. Some people may not speak up, especially towards friends. Not a surface thing but I really treat every comment my friends have given. I am now like in a gold mine and everywhere is subjects for taking photos. What a Wonderful World!
Dear Geoffrey Wu, we are glad you wrote your comments here. Though we are just a small group of friends chatting at our spare time out of our stressful busy work in day time, we are thankful in this world there are many nice things around and we should thank for your hotel being as it is the way to be. I am glad that my friends who were once opposed to some classic hotels, get convinced with what I introduced to them. So far, it's zero failure on my personal self-volunteer marketing. MO HK and MO BKK are the 2 most favourite hotels on my travel and eating agenda! Thanks again for dropping by!
My customersss also said that MO in HK is better than its competitor such as Four Seasons over all.
