A minimalist photo of a rather solitary off shore lighthouse in a calm sea, in Mukho, Donghae, South Korea. 감사합니다 ,Yerin!

I don't know why - maybe it's just the shape of the lighthouse - but I feel there is almost a Sci-Fi look in this simple yet effective shot, that I find quite attractive.

Yerin tells me that the stamp features a character from Princess Catch! Teenieping, a very popular 

South Korean animated children's television series. I tried to identify the character in the stamp, but there are so many of them (and to my untrained eye, some look so similar to one another) that I simply gave up...

The postmark hails from Nowon, one of the 25 districts of Seoul, South Korea's Capital.
