광양항이 보이는 향에서 묵었습니다. 풍경도 멋지고, 조식도 간단히 제공되고, 시설도 잘 갖추어져 있습니다. 광양항 근처 숙소들이 다 가성비가 좋긴 하지만, 가격대 숙소 품질은 이곳만한 곳이 없습니다. 길 건너 편의점, 걷는 거리에 식당들도 많이 있고요.

This was captured a few afternoons back at Suncheon Bay here in South Korea. Upon arrival it was raining and didn't look like holding up. I was rather disappointed as there was a hike to a lookout that I was keen to shoot with the setting sun. In need of coffee, we headed to a nearby cafe instead. Not long after placing our order I noticed nice light hitting the interior of the cafe. I looked out to see the sun fighting its way through the grey. With only 20 minutes before sunset I was torn between chasing the light or enjoying a warm cup. Like always, the light of course won me over and I found myself charging up the hill like a mad tourist. I stopped to capture this on the way. Somehow I managed to make it to the top of the 2km hike, much to the disgust of my calves, and I managed to witness a site I really thought I wouldn't see. I've lost count of the times the sun has broken through the darkest of skies. You can't ever doubt. #goldenhour #sunset #suncheon #korea #travel
