light play example 4

Diag.: The light touch

This, from a recent Korean pro game, is interesting as an example of light play that avoids close involvement. If Black 1 at a, White plays atari at 1 and Black has a rather low position. White's extension at 2 has a feeling of pace - no current need to save the marked stone.
