A Sea of Yellow Buds
Authored By:
Spring is a good time to be in Seoul. Well, for those without pollen allergies.
I think Seoul experiences spring in waves. In the first wave, cherry blossoms are the spectacle, parading every street, festivals held in their honor, and hundreds of people busting out their cameras to capture their beauty. The second wave is more subtle and comes after they float and wither away, abscissed by rain and wind, and is usually characterized by the blooming of all the other beautiful flowers.
Today, I went to Seoraeseom and spent my time with a sea of honey-yellow Canolas. It was golden hour by the time I arrived, and despite the spring bugs buzzing around, it was such a beautiful scene. Their location created the perfect view, the Han River behind the galaxy of sunglow tinted buds.
I took many, many pictures and was there until the sun dropped. Even without the golden rays, though, their luminance didn't fade. I was sad to part with this moment, but now I get to look forward to summer and all its jazz.
