    Oh, my god. This really needs very little description! It's a wonderful shot and location. Does your sea stay this stormy much of the winter?

    Now that would have been a slippery place - had it been taken around here these days.

    I think Trillian is giving you a run for your money, VP.

    Trillian, you take a back seat to no one when it comes to photography...I think you've got a "natural" eye and this shot proves it. Perfection!

    It's wonderful!
    What's the effect of salt on the marble in the long run. Or perhaps it's not marble... :)

    This is wonderful, very surreal. I also love your post the day after weekend reflections. The turrets...but the sky is so ominous and beautiful. Thank you.

    The thing I like more in this picture is the blue of the sky reflected in the wet tiles. Brava Trillian!

    Great shot! I like them all - the reflection in the tiled terrazza, the wave frozen in motion, the blue sky and the enduring silhouette. Beautifully composed.
