Seoul Gone Tomorrow

When I walk by these payphones in Seoul’s extensive subway system I wonder when they will be gone. With the prevalence of cellphones through every layer of Korean society who still has the need for payphones or even walks around with loose change. Im trying to make this into a series. I just hope to remember to snap a pic when I walk by these disappearing mementos.

Harsh Winter Light

Winter in Seoul has some really nice low strong sun light when the sun is out. I found a couple of spots in Myeondong where the light was interesting and I all I had to do was wait.

Hongdae Halloween 2015: Female Edition

lostaruban halloween nishika (13)

 

During last Halloween I hit the streets of Hongdae with a friend and we took photos of the wonderfully dressed up people there. I used my Nishika N8000 ( the older and heavier brother of the N9000). It is a heavier camera but so far more dependable and I prefer the forward lever compared to the forward spool of the N9000. I threw on a small lomo flash and I hit the streets.

Lady above had probably my favorite costumer with the Liechtenstein homage, but it was the last frame of the roll and I must have opened the camera at one point, getting a major light leak.

Snowy Namiseom Island

Had chance to stay on Namiseom island over the Christmas break. We got lucky and it snowed during the night. I managed to go out and take some photos before the flood of tourists arrived on the island.
