looking the place only from the outside.., Kyungbokgoong Palace, Seoul Feb 13 2012

scent of a space.. hermits' retreat.. , Ssanggyesa Temple Jerisan Mountain Korea 2007

the windows.. so simple but ELEGANT.., Kyunbokgoong Palace Seoul Korea Jul 2009

exquisiteness as well as its uniqueness.. , Woljungsa Templ Korea 2006

seeing through the gate.., 종묘 Jongmyo Shrine Jongro Seoul Korea Jul 25 2009

standing just on the edge of the boundary..
.. in or out, black or white.. action or reaction..
.. like or not.. believe or not.. delicate or dumb.. delighted or not
.. dead or alive..

i really enjoy hearing the squeaking noise of
opening the old big wooden gate.. :p
which is definitely a welcoming sound
leading me to a different time & space of the history..

what do you usually hear
when you knock the door of history..?

tous les jours.. comme au premier jour.., 덕수궁 Duksoogoong Palace Seoul Korea Jun 9 2006

comme au premier jour.. Andre Gagnon


don't know why..
the pieces of sound & melody of Andre Gagnon
keep reminding me of the place of the palace..
where I have been visiting for a long period of time
from my infant age till recently couple of years ago..

my mom who passed away long time ago
used to bring me & my brother hand in hand in here
to take just a walk..

comme au premier jour.. Andre Gagnon
