Scenes I Shot in Korea

This post was written in 2007. Some information may be out of date.

I’ve been busy with one thing and another lately, and my computer has been acting up, so I haven’t had much chance to post. Since I’m doing food posts anyway, I’m going to put up a whole bunch at once. And then I might disappear again for a good while..

Views of Wolmido

Views of Wolmido

After eating at Daedo Sikdang, I couldn’t decide where to go next and ended up at Wolmido. Truth is, people who actually live in Incheon don’t really go to Wolmido. There’s not much to see.. (though it seems a few things have popped up lately..) It’s more people from Seoul who come out here to see the sea.

Here’s the legendary Wolmido Viking, the one everyone says is terrifying.

Maybe because it’s so popular, they had more of them than before, three running at once.

This one looked fun too.

Women in skirts seem to be the main target..

That’s about the limit with an 85mm, but there’s just no way I could carry anything bigger around..

Over that hill you can see the Seoul Museum of Art right away. The walk itself wasn’t hard, but that Monet exhibition may go down as the worst exhibition of my life. How could there not be a single major work worth seeing? If they had any conscience they wouldn’t charge 10,000 won for it.. I once saw a single Monet painting at a place called the Chichu Art Museum, and that one painting was better than every painting in that exhibition put together. By a long way..

Seoul City Hall

Just a quick snap. I’ve photographed City Hall several times, but I’m hardly ever happy with the results.. Well.. just bad luck, I guess..
