Moonset, Venus, and Traffic

Continuing the recent trend of pictures of celestial objects... Some shots of the moon setting over Yudal-san. You can see the Evening Star, Venus, off to the right. Freaking awesome. Click for the large (extra cool) versions, suitable as desktop wallpaper.





Bonus pic: traffic leaving Second Square, just after the moon set.

Spring Thaw (2)

Another great day in Mokpo, though it was a little breezy. We walked up the side of Yudal for a picnic with friends Dave and Camille.





We had some guacamole and chicken salad, a bunch of crackers. Living the life, you know. And we weren't the only ones...

Inconstant Moon

I hope you'll have clear skies for tomorrow's lunar eclipse. There's a viewing guide here, or here. In anticipation of the light show, enjoy a couple pictures from last night's moon-set over Yudal-san (Mt. Yudal.)

The pictures here don't really do justice to what was a beautiful sight: the moon setting behind the mountain's mist-shrouded peak was all very Lord of the Rings and worth every mosquito bite I received while taking the photos.
