Just a friendly reminder that my project called "The World Upside Down" will be ending on December 15th. I seek to photograph some of South Korea's biggest events and landscapes with color film in a 7x17 inch camera during 2014-2015 and exhibit them as very large panoramic prints. With a successful project, I also plan to donate these large prints to galleries and museums across South Korea.

An update about the future of Lee Smathers in South Korea. On December 25th, I will be in Seoul recording a 10-15 min. lecture/speech in front of a live audience (think talk show audiences). My lecture will be in Korean and will be aired on Korean national TV at prime time on a Sunday following the recording. Many Korean (and foreign) celebrities have hosted this program, but it'll be the first for a photographer to host the show. I'm very excited about what other opportunities might come out of this. It would be really incredible to be able to talk about the success and support of the worldwide community for the funding of my Kickstarter project. Please help spread the word and if you are able, a small pledge to the successful project could reward you with a nice hand-designed or hand-crafted souvenir from an active large format photographer (and celebrity?) in South Korea. Thank you!
