I was excited when asked to photograph a Doljanchi which is a traditional Korean 1st birthday celebration. One highlight of a Dol is a ritual where the child is placed in front of table with items such as string and rice - it is believed that the first item selected by the child foretells the future. For example string means a long life and rice means wealth. Well, my little birthday girl went straight for the iPhone ... a future in technology perhaps?
