[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Beomeosa Temple in Busan. Temple is lying on Geumjeongsan Mountain at the edge of Busan. Originally established during Silla dynasty became very well known centre of Buddhism.
Geumjeongsan Mountain is very popular tourist attraction. About an hour walk up hill from the temple there are rebuilt remnants of a fortress and another half an hour brings you to the top of the mountain with fantastic panoramas of Busan and surrounding area.
As in many temples there is possibility of a “temple stay” at Beomeosa for interested in Buddhism and life in this beautiful place. You can witness daily routines, I think, but remember – the wake up time is four o’clock in the morning.

Hallo Chris!
What a place ...! The buildup of your photo with this contrast of beautiful and intricate architecture and impressive nature works very well. And the technical quality of the picture - brilliant - as the note is! Really good work! (The sky? Well, it was white this day ... but, did you write the name of the mountain properly ? ;-)
Greetings from rainy and very cool Siegen!
