Or at least that's what is on the tag on the post to the right center of the photo. Menu is also almost readable from this angle. In the RAW file it's clear and tack sharp with 3:1 zoom. Not sure if you will be able to see it clearly when opening up the original through flickr (i.e. right click on the photo and select original). (Note as of April 2014.... Since Flickr changed to the "New Experience" format, you no longer have the capability to do this function for right clicking and selecting the original size. You can however still do this if you change to any other language than English :(.... Bad flickr bad). Shot with my old Nikon nifty fifty. Still sharp as ever. Shot is simply street restaurants & shops along Akbiyk Cd - Istanbul.
Modern day dinosaur that flourished on the planet not long ago. Darwin's evolutionary theory at play here as these human size electronic chatting cages were replaced by an object you can now fit in your pocket. I miss the good old days when phone conversations were private. Obligatory photo from visiting London this past week. :-)
This roof makes me think of another use for Duct Tape! LOL I definitely do not see any hope for this poor old barn, except as good subject matter for "barn freaks" like me! Enjoy your Sunday!

I slowly walked down a narrow hallway, uncertain of where I was going and what I was going to see. As I rounded a corner and entered a brightly lit room, I was greeted by a sea of floating horses in a kaleidoscope of colors.
This was my introduction to the "Ganse Inhyeong" or Jeju Pony Dolls exhibit at the Gallery Art Link in Samcheong-dong, northern Insadong in Seoul. The dolls, made by members of the Ganse Gongbang craft centers in the Jeju National Museum in Jeju City and the Jeju Olle #6 trail office in Seogwipo, were on display from March 24th to 27th.
I made my way through the maze of Ganse dolls hanging from the ceiling and was met by Suh Myung Sook, the president of the Jeju Olle Organization. As we walked around the colorful exhibit, she explained to me that life in most of the larger Korean cities today is fast paced and competitive. In contrast, the "Ganse" dolls represent the slower, more peaceful pace of life on Jeju Island.
She went on to explain that over the last decade the price of women's clothing in Korea has dropped by 2/3rds, making it easier for woman today to buy clothes cheaply, wear them for a short time, and then quickly throw them away as they move on to the latest fashions. Over a million tons of clothes are thrown away every year in Korea. Taking advantage of this waste, the enviromentally friendly Ganse dolls are hand made with recycled cloth.
Some of the dolls were made by celebrities from all over Korea and are being sold for 100,000 won. The remaining dolls, made by regular Ganse Gongbang members, sell for 15,000 won. All proceeds go to the Jeju Olle Organization to help improve and maintain Olle walking trails around Jeju.

Wonders never cease, I actually got up on a Saturday morning and left the house by 6:00am to catch a sunrise, but of course it was a grey day that threatened rain................Murphy's Law. It was so nice to be up and out at that time of day though and I enjoyed the early morning as well as getting some good shots! I hope you're having a good week!
