I'm meant to be resting up in time to go cover two days of EStars in Seoul (tomorrow and Sunday.) However, despite accidentally inhaling burnt plastic fumes (don't ask.) and feeling a bit rubbish I wanted to photograph something tonight. (I've not practised for almost two weeks due to work.)

So my experiment was: How many photos can you take outside without leaving your building?

The answer: Two hours worth.

I got spotted by the guys who run my onetel (one room living place.) and they were just 'S'up.' when they saw me sitting on the front step with my camera out and pyjamas on. (I think they're finally getting used to having a weird foreigner roaming the halls.)

I like the 9th last to the 4th last. I'm no expert, but I think the 2nd shot might have been nicer if the sky was a touch darker, deeper into the magic hour.

Same here, but unfortunately it started raining and I couldn't go back up any later onto the roof to take more photos like I intended to -______________-

That is one of the shittiest feelings ever, when you know it could have been just a little more perfect but something refuses to cooperate. I feel for you. =(

Thanks for sharing, amazing work as always.

LOL at the CJ trash can

. Also its interesting to see the street lights hanging horizontal rather than vertical. My favorite one is the 11th down, with the trees and city view but really, all of them are good.

I'm not really into urban style photos but these weren't bad at all.

Nice, keep it up

These are really nice. Never, do you use a tripod for your night time shots? Or does your lens just have a really fast shutter?

Some of the cloud shots look absolutely amazing. And I also love the traffic light; it has some really nice color contrast. In fact, most of these pictures look really good.

I'm always surprised at how photos can look so good independent of subject.

I love this set. Your street shots are great...they really capture that almost overwhelmingly colorful urban atmosphere of Seoul.

Great job. (:

I used flash for a few of the shots done earlier in the day and then it was a case of me sitting around holding the internal flash down whilst trying to get clear shots. A lot of trial and error on my part. I'm going to invest in a tripod when I get my wide angle lens for the Canon (later this year.) so I can go and do some landscape shots out in Deokso etc. I've not had the chance to use one yet.
