Owen, really big waves are RARE here--they blow in with really big storms during the rainy season, I guess. Maybe after a few more years of careful sea-gazing I'll have a better understanding of it.
Leif, we live near enough to walk there--we can't see it from our living room or anything. :)
Dina, the yachts freak me out. In a city of incongruities, they successfully emphasize the expanse of the socio-economic spectrum ranging from very poor to very rich.
Everybody's looking for something. Mary Ann is looking for the real Beirut, whatever that means. These are the photos she takes along the way.
You can browse around the archives here or check out her other blogs. There's one from a few years ago, back when she blogged about art. And then there's another from '09 when she lived in St. Louis (USA).
Funny! Good use of the second photo for the punchline. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the light and composition of these shots.
ReplyDeleteI guess it's a good thing tidal coefficients are so small in the Mediterranean, wouldn't take much of a tide to wash these all back out to sea...
ReplyDeleteA great boats down by the sea photo! I wonder how far that is from your front door?
ReplyDeleteOi, a skeleton of a boat.
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of a relief to see simple boats instead of a marina full of yachts.
Thanks for all the nice comments!

Love the simplicity of the images. No fluff. No muss. Serve a purpose and get the job done.
