 Many women in Korea, in fact probably 99.9%, carry their children in slings around their backs. I've been trying to catch a good shot of one of these for a while, and this is the best I've got. I will keep trying!

I chased this woman for quite a while. I ran down a parallel street and every time I saw her through on of the alleys I grabbed a shot or two. It was fun...

Precious baby, cradled safely on momma's back - first thought that came to mind - wonderful processing.

Excellent baby shot and educational for us in the West

I love the mental visual of you "stalking" this woman down alleys and streets. Would make a good video. 8)
