Meeting the Wildflower Photos I Took in a Photo Book

Seodaemun Natural History Museum 'My Special Wildflower Friend' Photo Contest

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seodaemun Natural History Museum (Director Nam-sook Lee) is holding a photo contest for plant photos taken by citizens from August 1 to November 30 this year.

This contest, titled "My Special Grass and Flower Friend," was organized with the purpose of "allowing citizens to closely observe the trees and grasses around them and feel the comfort that plants provide."

Anyone can participate, and those interested can take photos of wild plants they encounter during walks, commuting, or on their way to and from school, and upload them to the Seodaemun Natural History Museum website (Participation ⇒ Flower Friends) along with the plant name, date and place of the photo, and the photographer's name.

It is not necessary to know the plant name; in such cases, the museum will provide the name. The Seodaemun Natural History Museum will select 50 photos from the submissions to create a photo book and present it to the citizens who submitted the selected works.

Additionally, all participants will receive a PDF photo book file and a small commemorative gift.

Nam-sook Lee, director of Seodaemun Natural History Museum and a PhD in plant systematics, stated, "Plants with large and colorful flowers that attract attention are nice, but wild plants that bloom small flowers at street corners can become special friends if you pay attention." She added, "We look forward to the interest and participation of many people in this 'Flower Friend' contest."
