With the image framed in my viewfinder, I am still…waiting for the sun to break through the fog…waiting for magic to happen.

Buddhas at Kum Ryong 2, South Korea
Buddhas at Kum Ryong 2, South Korea
This is one of many photographs captured at Kum Ryong near the Korean Demilitarized Zone which roughly follows the 38th parallel for 160 miles dividing North and South Korea. It’s one of those places that, unless you knew one of the locals you would never find in a million years. I was watched closely while at Kum Ryong Temple atop its 5,000 ft. mountain perch, and later I leaned that I was the first foreigner to visit the sight.

Leonard Misonne

Cruisin’ Hwy. 58 No. 2 – A Digital Painting
Cruisin’ Hwy 58 No. 2 – A Digital Painting
~ view a portion of painting at 100% ~
After spending a few days at Carrizo Plain National Monument at the peak of the 2017 wildflower superbloom, I turned back onto Hwy. 58 heading east. I was still in 3rd gear when I noticed this rusty, corrugated sheet metal outbuilding in a field and pulled over. I decided to set up head on, the scene almost centered, but not quite so the two trees with surrealistically twisted branches would frame the structure, but it wasn’t until I looked through the camera’s viewfinder that my heart began race. I was looking at another viewfinder, the window…a viewfinder to the flower filled hills and beyond… “Al Di La”
