Photo Essay: Han River Sunset


Han River Sunset

Muse:
Beautiful isn’t a word often used to describe your typical Korean sky, but spring isn’t your typical Korean season. The few weeks that come together bridging the bitter Korean winter and the stroke inducing Korean summer are quite magical. The land comes alive; birds sing; flowers bloom; children run amuck. After the yellow dust blows through, something often forgotten, especially in the bigger cities, appears: the sky! Grab your loved ones and get out to the Han River. Walk around all day in the colorful gardens. Play in the parks. Experience one of the many outdoor cultural events going on at any given time. Just be sure at the end of the day you take time to enjoy the sun setting across the seemingly endless sky above. Before you know it, the rain will come, the mosquitoes will follow, time will pass and the dreary greys will return. Bask in the beauty while you can!


This is the first in many short photo essays I plan to blog from time to time. This shot was from a recent visit to the Han River in Seoul. I have more from that day to show off in an upcoming blog. Thanks for checking this out; there's plenty more to come!
