Thanks, DaveO, it was an excellent opportunity. He didn't know I was there. :-)

Thanks, SonyA580, it is about 50% cropped on top, bottom and sides and basic pp. Glad you appreciate it. :-)

A good one, waegwan. A nice name; good composition. It looks like more like 1950 than what I think of as their present state in agriculture.

Thanks, Voss, Where I live there is still a few very small towns of not more than a hundred people or so. Most of the young people have left. The old folks still live with their houses clumped together and their farms across the road and many of them still farm small patches like this the way they did 50 years ago. Sadly, as the old folks die off the land is being sold for factories or warehouses. This little town is about two or three miles from where I live. Fortunately for me, the town I live in is a historic landmark and being preserved. I don't expect Agok-ri or the other little town on the other side to be recognizable with 10 years.
