Kommejtkie rockpool

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.

    Angkor temples

    Finally I have got round to processing and uploading the photos from Angkor Wat. First tranche is from the smaller temples around Angkor Wat itself. You should be able to see why I preferred these quiet and incredibly atmospheric places to the main attraction.

    Today’s photo:Getting the bread. This shot was taken in Nalliers, on the river Gartempe in the Vienne region of France. The old gent was notably wobbly on his bike, and seemed to be heading out to get his morning baguette. Note: Click photo to enlarge – back button to return.  This now works for the…
