Korea Off Limits

The sign with Korean symbols translates to off limits. Strung up with single strand wire to a sapling split roughly with an axe at the top, and a bamboo pole jammed in for a crossbar, this roughshod barrier looked kind of severe. I turned back, but made this capture on Kodachrome first.

Nikon N90 SLR, AF Zoom-Nikkor 80-200 mm f/2.8D ED, Kodak Kodachrome 64 color transparency film, exposure not recorded, Nikon L37C, program mode: Aperture Priority, M-up Mode, Manfrotto 3221 tripod with Manfrotto 3047 studio head, Nikon MC-20 remote cable, Plustek OpticFilm 7600i Ai , 35 mm film scanner, LaserSoft Imaging SilverFast 8 scanner software.

rabirius: Thanks for liking my image “Korea Off Limits”. I thought this was a sign with character. A bit rough around the edges, but doing the job.

The beauty of South Korea is subtle. You have to look for it, usually off beaten path. Once you find it…it is deep and ever lasting.

yMoon: Thanks for liking my image “Korea Off Limits”. You are right. Cycling would be the ultimate way to tour South Korea. Besides the visual you will experience the sounds and scents of Korea on a bike. Next time!

It is deceptively simple at first glance but once you start to really see it, it’s all about texture, very distinct differences in texture throughout the entire image…You have the most amazing eye.

  Thanks Lezlie. I’m glad you liked the simplicity of “Korea Off Limits”. I feel there is an interesting plainness about this image, if I may borrow from the above quote by Ludwig Meis van der Rohe.
