Seogwipo Sights (Jeju Photos 5.1)

The first picture in my previous post is probably my favorite from the Jeju trip. So, I decided to play with it a little in Photoshop. Here's what I came up with.



As Rachel pointed out, it has a Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil look to it. Not what I was looking for, but I'm (mostly) happy with the result, nonetheless. If only I could get the blur tool to work a little better...

Seogwipo Sights (Jeju Photos 5)

Jeju's southern city, Seogwipo, was very clean and definitely tourist oriented. Lots of the people we met spoke English, especially many middle age and older residents- in contrast to Mokpo where it's mainly the kids who stop to say "hello" on the street.

Here are some pics from around town. (Click for the big version of each.)

International Flavor (Jeju Photos 4)

The Koreans love English. From t-shirts with ungrammatically-funny phrases on their fronts to consumer products, movies and television, they like to see that good old Roman Alphabet in print. Doesn't matter if the English makes much sense. Doesn't matter if it's out of context, anachronistic, or just plain weird- as long as it's in English.

Here are three different hotels we saw, in Jeju, with a nice international flavor.







And here are some more Jeju pics... in English.







So, none of these is very funny. Try Engrish.com for a look at the good stuff.
