    You are right Arne. The Hong Kong Free Press article directly credits Karsten Petersen and gives the same link to his portfolio of photos. A wonderful collection.

    He gave us permission to use some of his photos in the JRA YouTube videos. He seems happy for people to use them but likes to be asked.

    It would not surprise me if some of these photos came from Karsten Petersen's web album (  index111ChineseJunks (global-mariner.com) ) . His intro text is also worth reading. Album 2 appears to be empty.
