A Gypsy, Bismillah & Esmerelda The Spider Sit With Yama At The Vaitarna
Many years back, when I was in Seoul, I was taken across to the border.
Across the waters, you can see the border to North Korea.
I took the shot with a dinky camera, and created this effect to mimic the chill I felt in my bones that day.
It was a cold day – daytime temperatures of -5 degrees centigrade. However, as I looked across at the Hermit Kingdom and thought of it’s unfortunate citizens, the cold I felt went deep into my bones..

Writing is ..., it just is ...

Wow, this is really a powerful image.
Yeah, thanks. Especially when you think that the people of North Korea, as per most accounts, have almost nothing – not even personal freedom..
It is a really powerful image indeed. What a shame that you felt a chill in your bones ..
Hi Julie.. Yes. Travelling in South Korea is like travelling through a consumer goods fantasy land, in some respects. The Koreans are very traditional, but very tech and consumer savvy. And then, we saw this room decorated in the North Korean style. There is such a contrast. Looking over at the borders to North Korea, you are reminded that you are looking over at a country where the citizens have almost nothing, not even personal freedom. This is chilling.
Hi Rajiv .. we are so fortunate aren’t we?
Hi Julie.. We are, and often forget
Like a historical map … 🙂
Almost, yeah:)
beautiful capture!
i can feel the cold
I can believe that..
