Photographer’s Note
I've done a few overhead shots of the streets of Korea from up high, but I though I'd show you one from roof top level. These types of streets are sometimes confusing to navigate through, sometimes leading to a dead end, or into the path of an angry dog, or even into the company of a group of old people and their soju!
There's a fair amount of distortion in the photo as I took the photo at 12mm. I tried to correct it in Photoshop, but didn't have much suceess.

I like this mixture of life and architecture here. Your photo gives a sense of crowded but practical use of spave. I like th blues through out bringing a splash of color but also it helps in defining the parameters of different areas. Great point of view

i agree, there is an impressive amount of blue in this shot. korea always ceems to be a mixture of ages, and this shot captures that struggle between years gone by and emerging modernity quite well. the distortion adds to the struggle, if anything.. nicely done!

Hi Will,
I have always enjoyed street scenes shot from above. Good clarity here. TFS - Danilo
