North Korea

"Once in the DPRK, I had to find a soldier who would accept my request for a photo. It wasn’t easy. Many Flickr members have asked me if I photoshopped that photo, if it was taken in a studio, etc. I have decided to keep it a secret, but once North Korea opens its doors (though I don’t know when that will be), you can ask the subject. She’s a guide at the War Museum in Pyongyang."
