Reflection of activity
The objective of the book talk was to promote a book named “Old Hong Kong in Colour”. I have attended the book talk because I am interested in history of Hong Kong. After attending the book talk, I understood the difficulties especially photographs processing when publishing photography book. Therefore, I will make effort to preserve church historical photography books in my workplace. I will set a separate corner to store oversize photography books horizontally to give them the overall support they require.
