I am always amazed at the art I see jumping out at me in the city of Seoul. The little Buddhist temple shines a light to my camera even though I am not Buddhist. I am just passing by. The old style of the city is still here but the New shadows overhead. If you look down the alleys you will see cool little villages of people who lived the same way buying and selling in traditional markets and food stands but always towering overhead are apartment buildings and sky scrapers.

Hardware store display

Dried fish for sale

I couldn't finish this blog with dry fish. The subway gas mask usage label is a better way to leave this city.

If there is an emergency I don't think these gas masks will save us. We need to pray.

Hope you enjoy Korea.

Winter Olympics are coming soon.

Enjoy the irony of art in the city
