Happy Hour by Damienne Bingham
Essaouira, Morocco. 2007.
Canon EOS 400D
Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM
f/22, 1/800s, ISO 1600
RAW. As is.
Happy hour at the local bar in downtown Essaouira.
Remember: Don’t Drink & Cycle
This feels like such a whimsical moment for me, I couldn’t resist sharing. Seems like the quietest happy hour I’ve ever seen – and by the looks of the empty chair – the doorman has disappeared!
There were scenes like this everywhere I went in Morocco. Every corner you turned in the winding streets of the Medinas offered something new and interesting. A photographer’s delight!
