North Korea is one of the most secretive countries. Ruled by communists, labeled by US as one of the “Axis of evil” and the state sponsoring terrorists (no longer now), North Korea has not been open to the World for people to see. Here is a fascinating gallery of North Korea (Pyongyang the capital to be specific). Here is another one with drastically different scenes of rural part of the country.
Found both galleries via this post at DPReview.
I came across this amazing night photography gallery of the abandoned west by Troy Paiva. There you can find 16 sub-galleries of great photos of abandoned ghost towns, communities, houses, cars, signs, etc. Captured digitally using Troy’s unique style and light painting technique, the photos bring us a graphical glimpse of America’s western expansion and evolution history.

I ran across this excellent picture a day (PAD) gallery by Yves P. on Pbase.com. The pictures were shot mostly with Nikon D70s/D200, and some really nice Nikkor lenses, such as Nikkor 12-24mm f/4G ED-IF AF-S DX, Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF-S, Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR, Nikkor 85mm f/1.4D IF AF, Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Micro, Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D AF… I am definitely having a lens lust now.
Enjoy the photos (go directly to slideshow)!
