An Ecological Contradiction

A sea wall that stops the sea coming into an estuary so it can be drained and reclaimed

Paraparumu? No Ammyon Island looking out to the Yellow Sea

Cabbages yet to be given the Kimchi treatment

Scouring the mudflat for the last of the cockle shells

Getting some moisture from the patch of rice stubble

A flatty for Jo

... There are a few that have yet to be fuilled in for rice paddies

Migratory birds settle into an estuary that remains ...

At Chosuk (thanksgiving) Koreans return to the country place of their birth and visit the ancestors burial sites

At the top of the valley above the rice paddies and the rows of red chilli, stand the family burial mounds

Fishing village

These types of stones bear eulogies to the dead

Old and the new - above from ancient burial mound spans modern day transport network

5 families crowd in to picnic near each other - a wilderness togetherness experience

Some take offerings to the grounds in very formal processions

Brendan gets totem-ed

On his day off, field worker using the rotary hoe to launch his dinghy. Where's the sea gone?

Landing on the hard

Fishing nets - attract the birds ever hopeful of a free lunch

Fishing rafts - recreation destination

Nice spot to catch some undersize fish - mudflat cleansing

Good place to relax - a Korean 4 way intersection
