The coastline is deserted and quiet these days. It's quite beautiful.
The sky can occasionally be very dramatic in summer, but for the most part, the sky is uniformly clear and blue, which is also beautiful but can't stand the comparison with what the winter clouds bring to the picture.
In January 2006 things weren't any different than today. Well, mostly, not completely. My dog Pepi, for example, isn't alive anymore. He looked great in the black-and-white versions of the coastal scenery.
Here you can take a look at the dense, dark forest near the sea.
The trees aren't thick or tall but some of the trunks are beautifully twisted.
The blue flowers of the wild chicory look great in the gloomy winter atmosphere.
This photograph shows a stretch of coastline with flat rocks that serve as sunbathing platforms for colonies of tourists and locals in summer. The summer scenes resemble what I saw in documentaries about sea lions and penguins.
In this shot, Pepi is small and well-camouflaged on the pale rocks. I'm sure you'll find him if you enlarge the picture by clicking on it and take the time to explore all the details that the photograph offers.
Here you can see Pancho climbing another rock in the same area. Pepi and Pancho were brothers and my best friends in those days.
Here you can see the tall reed grass that grows in the inlets sheltered from the strongest winds.
AND THAT'S IT. AS ALWAYS HERE ON HIVE, THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MY WORK.
