Yellow Folding Door

 

Nikon Z50II, 16-50mm kit lens, Standard Picture Control
I don't know if this shop that sells boiled fish-paste kebabs and carp-shaped sweet buns is still in business. I have never seen it open. But I usually pass early in the morning before most places start business for the day.

Alley

Nikon D850 + 50mm 1.4G

 The orange building is in shadow early in the morning, but by about 10:00 or so (in winter) it has a nice glow.

Air Conditioner Fan

It takes quite a while to get a green walk signal at the large intersection near Sokcho Market. I had time to poke my nose down an alley and discover this scene.

We Do Welding

It is common for commercial and industrial businesses to use the sidewalk outside their building as an extension of their workshops or as a place to throw things when there is no room left inside.

Waterlogged Board



I photographed this waterlogged piece of particle board (press board?) a number of times with a number of cameras and was finally satisfied with this somewhat abstract version. Previous pictures included the blue tin roof of the white building but it was a distraction.

I was going to have a few more goes at this scene, but the board got blown over.
