The Namdaemoon market continues to be one of my favorite spots in Seoul. However, with as many times as I've been there, this individual was new for me. However, unlike the majority of my subjects, this individual seemed to be perfectly fine with my lens.

The Hongik Children's park behind my apartment is anything but. Given it's location immediately in front of the Hongik University main entrance, it is a popular hang out for the college crowd and the artists within. The area surrounding the small bits of playground equipment has become a popular place for beat boxers and free style rappers.

The seagull makes this shot

This was easily one of the best sunsets I've shot in a while. The seagull and the boat were perfect. Say what you will about those old non-VR Nikkor telephotos, but they a tremendous amount of photographic flexibility for so little money, its borderline ridiculous. Though you could argue that the shutter of the D50 makes up for a lot of what I don't have in VR on this lens.

At any rate, I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do. Its one of my favorite photographs of recent production.

Napping man

I went for a long walk in Myung-Dong and found this scene. I had great reservations posting this.
