Number one looks like a wallpaper pattern until the brain realises it's really trees, reflections and flood water. Quite beautiful.

The Korean soldier looks malnourished to the point of -6% body fat. Dressed in uniform like a human flag for the nation and starved by his ruler. What are the odds these guys have no live rounds?

The bride of the sleeping husband doesn't look very impressed.

A lot of those brides seem unimpressed, even.

The only ones that look happy in there are the couple that are listening to their ipod together.

I cannot believe the one of the people golfing, with the fire in the background? I mean it looks like it is right there! Like time to run or become a marshmallow if the wind shifts lol. Thanks for the pics.
