Very nice. The pay phones are getting old and rare. Your BW picture captures their antiquity. Unusual angle of the photo emphasises the form of the phone. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted.@ace108
Update at my end is that - Usually I write blogs about wildlife or travel photography but a stray dog and a crafty cat made me think of Dog/Cat person personalities and I wrote a blog about it with pictures and some stats. I request you to take a look when you have time and provide your valuable comments. Your comments enhance my Steemit experience. Thanks
You're welcome. It's still not a good as I wanted. I was waiting for some human walking pass being comparatively smaller than the handset. Thanks for your comment
Ahhh - If you had been able to capture that (human walking past), it would have been even more interesting. Perhaps you can try once again sometime. Thanks.
Love Vivaldi, so many feelings in the seasons. I like spring most and then summer. I have also an S6 and I find the camera gorgeous. Nice pictures by the way. Do you have the edge or the normal version? I have the edge but like more the normal one.
I like the Spring segment the most too. S6 is the phone I took over from my wife. I don't have the edge version and kind of not like that too. Her S8 is even more stunning with photos but you don't get to choose no edge, i.e., it's edge only. :-)
Edge is a pain as I always click something with my inner hand which I don't want to. My ex-colleague form Huawei(I worked there till last year) had brought some interesting holding device with a finger behind the phone from China.
So next phone in 2 years shall be the newest S then for the camera. My wife has an iphone 6s but the photos are not that stunning as with the Samsung
Hey @ace108, I remember there used to be a code you could type in to try and get a free call - ##00# I think it was haha.. thanks for the photo.. brought back memories :)
Pay phone is disappearing in Hong Kong as well as everybody has cell phone nowadays! Of course another reason is not many people in hong kong will keep the coins with them. They all use octopus card here!
Old school? Yes, back in the days old people like me go to school have to use this to call home if we are late or not going home for dinner. I was hoping to snap this with a human passing and how small the human is. It was difficult with many people walk. Maybe, need someone to pose there.
LOL..I never used it except once for a prank call..but would always stand by my parents as a child while they used this one loll you should get a selfie stick!! Then you can pose with it :) mine got stolen when some guys broke into my home last month grah
Why is it call a pay phone?
Just use steem or SBD
no, they don't steem nor SBD. :-)
What ashamed!
Do they takes upvotes?
They used coin phone when only coin was used, then card phone.
Now, these ones kind of takes both but.... (to be continue) in reply to paul-gillbanks.

Ok, so you understand me with the Spring :)

Hey nice shot !!
Thank you and thanks for your comment.
以前我最喜歡按那個電話按鈕了！
那你可会怀念有钮的电话吧。
現在是挺懷念的，手機觸控不好玩了啊～
Awesome brother :) I found your post in the 'hot' category.. Keep it up! :)
Thank you and thanks for your comment
Always a pleasure :) I hope my posts can be in that 'hot' category alongside yours in the near future!
Nice! Pay phones are hardly found these days!
Yes, more and more rare by the day. Thanks for your comment
Wow, turning this photo black and white really made it look great, upvoted and now following you!
Thank and thanks for your comment.
We used to see these all over here in the States. Now I cannot think of where there is even one in use. How times have changed!
Yes, times has indeed change. In some nations, there's a leapfrogging without having to lay lines for the infrastructure but go to cellular directly.
Hey @ace108, I remember there used to be a code you could type in to try and get a free call - ##00# I think it was haha.. thanks for the photo.. brought back memories :)
You're welcome. I heard of something along the line. Didn't try much so cannot really remember.
Thanks for your comment.

I still have my八达通from few years ago. Wonder if it still works.
It works for sure! They don't have expiry date.
Hmm. That's good. Ours here do.
Cool we have some of this phones on trainstations :)
I remember they put some in our train stations don't seem to seem them anymore.
Omg, this is so old school! The best telephone to make a prank call from loll..Great close-up angle :))
