I have several shots of the same kids at different corners of the village, it's either they're following me or I am following them...

Drinking beer IN the street!

Drinking beer IN the street!

A shortage of land and/ or high real estate prices forces bars here in So. Korea to offer their customers drinking in the street instead of on the sidewalk (none) during the summer evenings. Fortunately, there's just an occasional car that passes by.

Mini-critique (as if it was wanted and asked for): this is one of those HDR photos where, to my eyes, half of it is appealing and interesting, and half of it is showing the less desirable artifacts of the dynamic range adjustment (talking here about the sky halos). I think this could be a pretty provocative photo if the sky were masked out and adjusted separately and differently.

Criticism is always welcome. I agree about the sky halos, they spoil it for me too. I was only playing around with a single image and Topaz Adjust 5, I didn't spend much time on it. HDR type images don't always do it for me but I have seen some excellent pictures posted on RFF. If I get time I will revisit this image and start again from scratch
