The Heart Of Seoul - (South Korea)

10 Photos from 10 Countries for 10 Days

 

Yesterday I started releasing free desktop backgrounds on Google+!

 

Basically it works like this: Each day, I post a photo from a different country with a download link to the wallpaper, repeat. Simple right?

 

Here’s the catch: The download links are made available exclusively first on Google+. So if you have a G+ account and want in on the download action, head on over, circle me, and enjoy the free wallpapers!

 

If you don’t have a Google+ account yet, let me know via Email and I’ll hook you up.

Cheonggyecheon (no I can’t say it)

 

A couple hours before this photo was taken, I was shooting one of the beautiful (and numerous) Korean Temples. After a quick personality change and a strong cappuccino, I shifted mental gears and set out into the city center for a scenic blue hour shot.

 

There’s a man made river that runs down the center of downtown Seoul called The Cheonggye Stream. This water feature is lined with paved walkways and bridges. I was amazed how relaxing it was considering it’s proximity to the crowded city streets. I spent some time down there waiting for the right lighting conditions to set it. While setting up a cool reflection shot, I nearly got pushed in the water by a fast moving elderly woman. She basically tried to hip check me. -- I’ll save that story for later.
