•oO HAN River Oo•, a photo from Seoul, North

Photographer's Note

•oO HAN River Oo•

Motivation:
During my second visit from South Korea on May 2005, I had some free time out of business meetings and with my Korean friend had some visits from sight seen. We had some rest by the Han River (한강) side. It is a favorite place for lovers and tourists on sunset time.
The sunset colors and pairs of lovers which sat on step by the river were my promotions for taking this picture.

Location:
The Han River in South Korea is the confluence of the South Han River, which originates in Mount Daedeok, and the North Han, which originates in Mount Geumgang.
The Han River flows through Seoul to empty into the Yellow Sea.
The total distance of the Han River is 514 km. Although it is not a long river, the lower Han is remarkably broad for such a relatively short river. Within Seoul limits, the river is more than 1 km wide.
There are totally 25 Bridges over the Han River.

P.P. Job:
I made some Photo Adjustment on Corel Paint Shop Pro X and cropped and framed in Photo Shop CS2.

-=Wishing You and Bright and Cheerful New Year 2007=-

Hi Javad

Nice juxtapositioning of blue & yellow colours, in this tranquil riverine scene at sunset. I like the silhouette of the bridge. Well done!

Hi Javad,
Nice shot with the excellent colors of the sunset,and good composition with the river and the bridge,but I think it's a bit dark and if the people who are the right side had been lighter it was better.Totally I like the soft colors and composition.
Best Regards

Hi Javad.

The worst that I can say about the photo is that is a bit tilt.
If I don't mind: the point of view and exposure are nice and looks a nice landscape.

Thanks for share.
