the Seoul Lantern Festival

There are a lot of things I could say about the Lantern Festival—about how it takes place every November, and enormous lanterns of every shape and description are erected in the suburb of Jonggak, in the center of the Cheonggyecheon, the gorgeous stream which runs through downtown Seoul. But why bother saying these things when I can just show you the pictures?

(I apologize for the low-quality, less-than-vivid and somewhat blurry images. Either I know nothing about photography or my Canon PowerShot A480 doesn't do low light. Next year I'll have a badass camera and THEN we'll get the stew sorted from the dumplings. I'll photograph the hell outta this thing.)
