Blackbird Over Seoul

 Seen hovering over the Chungmuro subway station.

Just some pretty scenic pictures.  It's azalea season - in this case at Jamsil, Gangnam.

I'll Never Stop Wondering

Whether that's a real rock or an empty shell.

Full Moon Rising

There is a card game known as "Hanafuda" or Flower War in Japan.  And some time during the last couple of centuries, J merchants brought it to Korea, where it took root as "Hwatu", which means -- Flower War^.  This image was taken several years ago when I was coming home from work one evening.  I saw it as I drove by the alley, and I just absolutely had to go back and take a few shots of the real-life "Full Moon" card from the Hwatu deck.

Sliding

A wistfulness passing unseen.

This confluence of randomnesses will never be repeated.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the restaurant that was supposed to be at the top of this desultory, spooky stairwell had gone out of business.  It wouldn't have been at all out of place to see some misshapen movie monster come waddling down those steps.
