Riding bicycle into the winter countryside seemed like a good way to complement my ragged feelings.
I didn't want to see people, especially after several walks through overcrowded downtown Sokcho during the Christmas and New Year holidays.
I liked seeing the signs of people without having to see anyone. It felt as though humanity had disappeared and peace returned.
The whole agricultural area was quiet. Even the cattle in their sheds were making no sounds.
Despite the cold, winter may be my favourite time to be out and about. Others are herding together in coffee shops and living rooms while I can enjoy isolation outside with no need to hide away in my room.
I like the sky (and composition) in the second shot.
ReplyDeleteYou’re better than me, getting out&about in the winter cold. I’ve turned into a wuss lately.
I see you have the same issue as we do here in Ireland - abandoned tyres. Businesses have to pay to have their tyres recycled, so less scrupulous people just fly-tip. We’ve had several instances down our road recently. There’s a small car dealer at the end of our road. Surely coincidental! 🤔
Thanks for the comments. I've photographed the second scene fairly often, but this is the best sky yet.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm sure the dealer and their customers would never toss their tires away.
