Mouse over the image for an alternate post-processed version (Flash Required). I'm quite partial to the contrasty photo more than the out-of-camera image but I'll let you decide for yourselves.

The Night Admiral Photo: Same place as yesterday but much later. I embed all my photos with original EXIF information so were you curious what time this photo was taken, take a look (Firefox add-on Exif Viewer recommended). Except for this country, I forgot to adjust to local time. The camera's still on India time so add 3.5 hours which puts this picture around the 10pm area.

Black Bean Paste Photo: Jjiajiang myun (짜장면) is a Korean noodle dish featuring a sweet black bean sauce, originally brought over from China but tweaked for the Korean palette. The sour yellow side dish, called dan mu ji (단무지), is made from pickled radish perfectly complements the taste of jjiajiang myun. Anyone else drooling besides me?
