A Symbol of God's Greatness!


Through nature's beauty, God's greatness is laid upon for us human beings to enjoy and exalt His goodness. This was taken in Mt. Naejang last autumn. It's shaped like a Christmas tree with yellowish, reddish and greenish leaves. We were lucky to have gone there just in time to appreciate the beauty of the mountain in autumn. I was there the first time in 2005 but wasn't able to have pictures because our camera had ran out of battery. So with our latest trip, I prepared enough batteries to last longer but unfortunately, the memory had ran out of space. :-)

The Last Tree Standing?


I find this picture so unique with a lone tree standing and as if it reaches the sky. This place is actually a work-in-progress for a new park here in Gunsan City located beside Geumgang river. I discovered this when we were visiting a nearby Bird Migratory Festival and decided to have a walk. I never thought I would be enjoying the scene in this under construction park more than the festival we visited. Well, this one is new while I'd visited the festival for the third time already and there were few changes for me to see.

A Coconut Store Over the Sea


Without any further ado, I hurriedly focused my camera upon seeing this floating coconut store while we were boating in Boracay. It really never occurred to me that I'd see this. In this part of the sea, boats stopped for the riders to snorkel and experience feeding small and colorful fishes. And because coconuts can't be found in Korea, Yonghoon asked for a sip of the coconut juice (Buko juice). I even took picture while he was sipping. It really pacified the thirst because of the hot weather. The guy had only his energy (for paddling the boat into the spot where the boats usually stopped ) needed for a profit. No other expenses incurred aside from having dark skin due to over exposure to the powerful sun.

What a long tongue she has!


She is Yo-na, my puppy. She has this long tongue that she likes to brag. She's a very active dog and won't hesitate to bark to anyone who comes near us despite of how small she is. Lately, her hair fell and were replaced by new ones. She looks thinner now because the new hairs aren't that long yet. I am sorry for her because for the past few months, I wasn't able to walk with her within the village due to my hectic schedule and cold weather.

A Sunset at it's Best

I will always be a fan of sunsets just like this one above. I was on my way home from the city walking when I fortunately had my camera with me and immediately took this picture before the fading sun would disappear. Luckily, I was on the spot where two trees were standing and included in the picture. I have lots of pictures with sunset as my subject and will never get tired of doing it if good opportunity comes.

A Picture of Contentment


If the rented boat of our Boracay escapade last summer hadn't ran out of gasoline, most probably I wasn't able to witness and take a picture of these obviously contented kids. How I wish I have the contentment that they have! Their darks skins must be the result of swimming almost if not daily in the beautiful waters of Boracay. I'm pretty sure they're great swimmers despite of their young ages. When asked to pose for a picture, they readily obliged and struck a pose. If you wonder why there are only boys in the picture, well, the girls were actually selling accessories like bracelets and necklaces made of shells and stones. They really sell their goods with great convincing power despite of how young they are.

Model in the Making


He actually didn't like me buying the shoes because they costs only $10. I asked him to hold it and pose like a model and luckily he obliged. The shoes were actually Made in Korea with the brand of Marco Polo. It's --th times cheaper than some known brands.

The Fallen Leaves


I was fascinated by these three fallen leaves on the street. They're like a small family trying to enjoy the serenity of the place. The picture was taken during our trip to Mt. Naejang last November 6. Thousands of autumn leaves fell but these three separated from the rest instantly caught my eye. So simple yet a story can be told using this picture. Ordinary eyes will see this as a no-story picture though for sure.
