    Very well done………..I love scenes “framed” by natural features, and this is one of the best!

  • Thank you, Nancy. It’s one of my favourites!

    One of my favourite places. 1980 eh? That was when I first went to Morocco. Essaouira has expanded dramatically in recent years, but the views from the port and the old town remain pretty much the same, rather as you depict beautifully here.

  • Thank you, I was, and still am, quite taken with it.

    Hi David, Wow what a wonderful image. I do like the frame by the porthole. It just creates that wonderful depth and adds detail. Cheers, Ted
