Jim at Holes in My Soles is hosting another week of Magnificent Monday and this weeks theme is “Vintage”.
A number of vintage action heroes could be found at the Seoul Lantern Festival at the Cheonggyecheon Stream in downtown Seoul this past weekend.
There was Superman…

The Seoul Lantern Festival is an annual event held during the first two weeks in November at the Cheonggyecheon Stream in downtown Seoul. The huge lanterns float in the stream and are admired by hundreds of thousands during the two week event. The weather this past Saturday was perfect, and it was literally wall to wall people. The event is free to attend.

These are incredible shots Nancie. They show up so well. Have you any shots of them without the lights so we can see how they are constructed?
BTW I’m the real Jim.
Would the real Jim please stand up? 🙂
Jim, the lights were all ready on when I arrived.
