68) National Treasure number 1
Tonight I went into what could best be described as “downtown Seoul”. It is an area I like to visit on occasion just to feel like I am in “the big city”. I was pretty tired, and didn’t really want to do much tonight, but the weather has been mild and I haven’t done much photography lately, so I thought tonight would be a good night for taking some pictures. On the way to my subway stop, while drifting in and out of consciousness, I was thinking about how much better I like living in Seoul. Not like it is hard to step up from Suji or my old school, but I have really been enjoying my life here. There is the occasional odd and stupid problem at work, but I just don’t even let that stuff bother me anymore- I just show up and do what I do. Anyway, the main goal of my little excursion this evening was to take pictures of Seoul’s first national treasure- Sungnyemun Gate. A couple weeks ago Dave (refer to the links) posted a pic of this, and it reminded me that I should really try to get some shots of this beautiful structure. I have been sizing it up for a couple months everytime I am in the area, and thought a shot at night through the traffic would be cool.
This video is just random, we watched it at work one day and I was almost crying laughing. I believe it is a banned commercial.

Nice video, Kyle!!
Very nice pictures ~ glad you finally got them.
Talk to you soon ... leaving for Jamaica in about an hour ~ will be in Negril for a week.
Take care,
Love mom
well I have to admit that those shots were much better than the ones I took...how do you get the lights to do that? Can you do that on a digital? might not see you before I leave but as Arnold said "I'll be back"!!
