Kommejtkie rockpool

image

A morning walk with M*t*n and P*tt* on the beach at Kommejtkie.   Walkers, surfers, dogs f*cking, families, loners, getting a mild dose of pre-breakfast exercise, on an uncharacteristically cold and grey strand. Later I went for a run on Noordhoek beach, 6km over. I had driven back, changed, and then started from the other end of what is a huge 8km long beach. Heading out I met many of the people I had seen earlier in Kommejtkie. They had ploughed on, and I wondered if they were puzzled how I had both overtaken them and mysteriously changed into running gear. They and I remained impassive, as we churned past each other though the sand and surf.

Above is today’s shot, taken in the morning on Kommejtkie beach. This time it is processsed in Photoshop touch for Adobe. The image uses three blended layers, really amazingly sophisticated for an Android app. Adobe, who make this code, are leading the way in mobile apps. Their best new stuff is on Apple. Shock news, I am going to have to buy an iPad. A report will follow soon, once the awful deed is done.

    Very minor modification to the plan to skip lunch today. The miniature hip-bath of fois risotto was what swayed me. Total cost – 6 euros.   This is at the Palace of FBT, the Mercado de San Anton. ←PreviousHow to order in MadridNextMadrid street – chums→

    ” Today’s photo:  A serious gaze from this boy in the market in New Bagan, Myanmar. I liked his combination of extreme youth and extreme seriousness. There is something quite timeless about him. But not necessarily sad I think – Myanmar seems quite a happy country – at least in this part. I recently posted…
