Image one is the sunset shot. It' s taken from the spot that you can see in Tuesday's post, the real working side of Ramsey Harbour. This is the part of the docks where all the ships and boats were built such as the Euterpe, or as it's known to us Ramsey folk "The Star of India."
Image two is a caricature entitled "Entente Incredible". The two figures depicted as Laurel and Hardy are (on the right) the UK Prime Minister, Gordon Brown and (on the left) the President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy. That's the odd "S" for today. It's a cartoon by my partner. I dedicate it to Louis, the owner of the best bar in the world, (and the regulars)of the "Up & Down" in Montpellier, France. There is a beer mat behind the bar with a Sarkozy cartoon. My partner drew that too.
Image three is the sunrise shot. Taken from the walkway into town ,looking towards the working side of the harbour and through the bridge. I never tire of photographing the bridge as you've probably noticed!

ReplyDeleteLove those sunshiny sparkles!
ReplyDeleteNina at Nature Remains
"Louis" really likes your Sunrise/Sunset idea! Perfect choice for "S" Wednesday and great photos!
ReplyDeleteThat was a cool flare picture for sunset/sunrise. The flare in this case made the picture way more interesting.
ReplyDeleteLove your 's' shots--some French people I know would like the Sun to Set on Sarkozy!
ReplyDeletethese photos are so amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteI like them very much.
beautiful captured light rays on the last picture.
Smashing shots! I'm going to love getting to know the Isle of Man! And do say hi to Denise from me!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of Sargozy before so that is something new for me this Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteFine photos! I also love that one from the Ramsey Harbour.
ReplyDeleteNice caricatures, but I fell for the sunset and sunrise by the bridge(s?)
ReplyDeletehi bab,
ReplyDeleteI really like the last one !
by the way, it spells SARKOZY and not SARGOSY which is nice, though ;-)
Great sunset and bridge ... and a very well catched caricature ... guess Gordon will be going with a Flash so Sarko will be alone!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - both shots.
ReplyDeleteIt`s the same bridge i guess?
My S
Beautiful shots and what a talented partner you have!
ReplyDeleteGreat 'S' post! I like the bridge sunrise and set, but I love the cartoon! It is really good.
ReplyDeleteYour better half should have a cartoon blog. I know he does them for papers etc and gets paid but he could show past drawings.
I love the second photo - really stunning.
ReplyDeleteI think your partner has captured Sarko perfectly too!
Good point Marley,
ReplyDeleteBARKERBITESBACK! on the links list is his blog.
