North Korea

These images are from my amazing journey to North Korea. Regardless of how good or bad a photographer I, or anyone for that matter, is - you just can't capture the energy, beauty and awe inspiring feeling you feel when gasing at this wonderous landscape! It was an outstanding trip and I will be back! I can't wait to see this place in the fall!







The light in this valley was breathtaking! The smells, the peace, the knowledge of where I was, was a bit overwhelming!




Yes! people, I climbed to the top of THAT!








Another view! Notice the stairs going up the mountain in both pictures.







A view from the top!







Sunset on Kum Kang Mountain









More views from the top


















The BEAUTIFUL valley


The Frozen Waterfall



I need to get a Korean to translate but I can make out aomething about in May Kim il Song did something amazing!








These rock carvings are all over the place, most are about Kim il Song, Kim Jong il's (aka. my daddy or Bob) daddy.






How blue is that water?


This is the only pic of a North Korean village I could get. Beautiful country side!







This boy is a North Korean who spoke to me at one of the places we went. Notice the pin on his shirt, ALL North Koreans wear a pin with Kim il Song on it.



How Korean am I?


Images of me in North Korea! Now, since my major weight gain, I am not a fan of posting pics of myself but.... I AM IN F***ING NORTH KOREA!





I have a rock from every country I have ever been too! I took this picture so I could sit down on this pile of rocks and steal some with out looking suspicious! TRUE STORY~! You see it is illegal to take them out of the country, but......
