Today I was in Seoul and visited Tapgol Park, Insa-dong, and Jogyesa Temple.  I don’t have time to go through all the pictures tonight or write a longer post, but I wanted to leave you with few photos before going to bed.

Saturday night was Ben’s housewarming party in Suwon.  This is the “Ben” I went to Spavis with, not my brother’s friend.  What’s unusual about Ben’s apartment, is that he lives one floor of a Korean house.  I’m so used to going to people’s apartments, that I almost forgot what the inside of a Korean house [...]

On Saturday morning, I dragged Raswan to Coex with me to attend the Seoul Photo and Imaging Show at Coex.  I had pre-registered us a month earlier, and didn’t have to pay the 5000 won entrance fee.  This ended up being a good move on my part because once we arrived around 10:50 am, the [...]

Through the Flickr blog, I signed up for Photojojo’s Photo Time Capsule today. “The Photo Time Capsule digs up your photos on Flickr from a year ago, choosing the ones that are most interesting (most views, comments, and faves), then sends them to you a quick email. I’ve been using it for a while, and [...]

We arrived in Kangneung a little later than expected because Readon woke up late, and we were behind schedule by about two hours. One we arrived on the East coast, we made Seorak-san our main excursion for the day. Our first stop was some temple on the way to Yangyang. As you can see, I’m [...]

I was walking around taking pictures today in Seoul, when I came up this frame below.  Notice anything different? Now, I’ve seen naked babies before as advertisement for a photo studio, but I’ve NEVER seen this: Wow, I couldn’t believe it.  I moved in a little to make sure it was real – it was.  [...]

Yesterday, Ras and I went to Namdaeumun to go lens shopping for my Canon 400D (Rebel XTi).  I picked up this bad boy.  Now I feel like I’m entering the realm of the big boys, but not truly knowing what I’m doing yet. I’m excited to use it on my travels this winter, even though [...]
