Meaningful to some

This is a photo I like because it means something, though it might not to most people.
I’ll explain why. This photo from Sandra shows a lot about being in Peniche. Besides the gradient from the background in the top to the lower part with the foreground with colors I like it also shows some unavoidable Peniche features.

The photo was taken from Molhe Leste beach just south to the East pier at Peniche’s harbor. There’s the fishing boat coming back to harbor, probably with this year’s first school of “sardinhas” in it, which reminds me that I haven’t had yet and must soon. There are the persistent seagulls looking for some opportunity in the boat’s trail, a must have you ever stared at Peniche harbor entrance. There’s the “nortada” and not so mild by looking at the various “carneirinhos” and there’s a summer sun showing the deposited algae from the storm the week before, this means as much “iodo” as possible in the sea water . For a surfers’ eye there’s also some lines coming in strait from west. If there would be some more feet on those waves this shot would probably be of a “tubo” a few hundred meters south, but that’s another story.
