Into the Cosmos

Another beautiful fall day here in Korea and MyeongHee and I decided to talk a walk along the Taewha river.  This time we started on the western end of the park where the cosmos field is.

A photo of several acres of just cosmos is pretty impressive and but difficult to photograph and remain impressive. We settled for just us. One for her, one for me.

As we walked along the river numerous cranes swooped in and fished.  I tried to catch some artsy pictures but didn’t get many good ones. Its a good thing digital cameras are here as I’d have spent a ton on film and processing for a bunch of junk.  I got one decent photo, though – this 3 foot pteradactyl was coming in for a landing.

Even harder to capture are the numerous fish that jump in the river. Some are small fry, only a few inches. Others we saw were over a foot long  – and fat – jumping up and splashing noisily.  The river park is becoming quite the wildlife spotting zone. It’s a peaceful walk.  Here’s another one of me among the world’s tallest grass species – no kidding – bamboo is really a grass.

Hope all is well in your world.
