In this Photo of the Week, visitors gather at the temple on Chinese New Year, to offer incense for good luck in the year ahead. Stepping back to show unique elements in a photo can help you tell a more interesting story. Including the crowd of people and the vibrant lanterns overhead creates depth and makes the scene more dynamic. This photo was taken at the Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple in Chuk Un, Hong Kong, by Local Guide Vming Yan.
