Clear skies over the North Sea in Germany. The seagull is on top of a traditional beach chair, which is also pictured in the post below and is profesionally described here. The history is told here.
I love this shot Mar. Looks like the gull was posing just for you. I looked at your post under this and also love the full view of the traditional beach chair. I like the way they have built in shade.
My German pen pal sent me a photo of her and a friend in a similar chair (back in the 50's). I wonder why the chairs are so brightly pattered inside? It seems that relaxation might be better served if the linings were cool blues and greens.
I remember those chairs... That's a great shot of the seagull - but I wish him LOTS of luck soaring like an EAGLE!!! Still... they are pretty in flight too!
that's a cute picture and a very interesting history about the beach chair. Nevertheless I have never seen a single one in the European countries I know (and I guess besides the North I know them all) and in other parts of the world neither. For the Belgian coast they would be ideal, but they don't know them apparently.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely capture Mar. love the shot of seagull with the combination of brilliant blue sky.
ReplyDeleteOn German beaches the 'beach baskets' (literal translation) are necessary, they give you a little protection from the wind.
