Photojournalist Shot of the Day.
It's been a while. Like I said: not a photojournalist. Otherwise I'd have to fire myself for posting such an out-dated photo. Still, it was a pretty magical catch.

Photojournalist Shot of the Day.
It is with much honor that I introduce the world to Bananacat.
Please, try to curb your enthusiasm or your need to make a lolcat from this adorable sight.

Just find something to cuddle and pretend it's Bananacat. That's what I do.

Photojournalist Shot of the Day
This one is dedicated to a weekend in Busan, and all the people who aren't teaching in Korea but chasing their dreams through travel and sharing their talents.
This is also dedicated to my continuing practice of only buying camera equipment if it is absolutely necessary or an incredible deal. For example, the Opteka fisheye lens used for this picture was a great little steal from Amazon for around $60. "Nice" equipment is-- well, nice-- but when you learn to use what you've got to the best of its ability, you can get some decent photos out of almost anything.
Traveler's/ photographer's tip: Don't depend on other countries to have a better deal on big ticket items just because their currency is weaker. In Korea, electronics tend to be on the more expensive side compared to the States, which surprised a lot of foreigners and caused some grief. If you're planning a big trip, make sure to do some research in advance! You might be heading for a country with some great deals, or you may realize that spending the money before you take off would be the wiser investment.
Until next time, happy days.

Photojournalist Shot of the Day
I'm not a professional photojournalist, but since I have my own blog I can pretend to be occasionally.
Here's a shot of Korea: what's that they say about a picture and 1,000 words?
PS: Anyone get the pun about 'shots' and Soju? Oh man. I should start writing this stuff down.
