A couple more from yesterday and a few from today in various parts of North Eastern South Korea.

this is from the highest peak within Samyang Ranch at 1300m. Converted in silver efex pro2. I suspect I've overcooked the sky a little as originally it was fairly innocuous.

There are a fair few windfarms up there and I thought I would make the most of the wide end of my 14 - 24 to get some interesting perspectives:

The Autumn colours are in full swing here, with deep golds and even reds. This is at the base of the ranch

Today we went further North, (our hotel is within 35 miles of the North Korean border) and took a cable car part way up seoraksan mountain. At about 1600mm there were a few fingers of rock around. The climbing isn't the hardest, even so there are people speaking words of encouragement from a megaphone on the summit to get people to climb to the top. Before I did, I found an interesting angle between some rocks:
