Half! (PiP) HBM!

Seilebost, Isle of Harris

Oh dear!! Half a bench captured at Seilebost, Isle of Harris. Seilebost is a small village on the coast road along the west side of Harris and the beach was named as one of the ten most beautiful beaches in the world (see PiP). The sea is the most beautful blue colour and I have added a song by Ella Fitzgerald called 'The Half of It, Dearie Blue'

Thank you very much Jaap. Sadly it looks more like a replacement rather than a repair is in order!!

Well, there's nothing to say the bench needs to be in one piece! A great setting too, not to mention an enjoyable musical link. HBM and best wishes for the coming week, Carol.

Ecobird ^club has replied to tiabunna ^club

Absolutely not George!! Sadly I think it needs a little more than a couple of nails and a tin of paint though! It really is a beautiful beach and my picture doesn't do it justice. I was blown away by the beauty of this part of the island

Sehr schöne Aufnahme mit dem Blick auf das Meer. Leider wird das Sitzen auf der Bank etwas unbequem.

Ich wünsche dir eine angenehme Woche.

Ecobird ^club has replied to Andrea Ertl ^club

Thank you very much dear Andrea. True -it does not look very inviting or comfortable. Perhaps bring a beach towel and sit on the beach?!!

HBM and I hope you have a lovely new week

Two grand photos Carol. Love that bench which is typical of a few I see too. When we were on Harris we saw practically nothing on our day trip as all the buses had gone off already and we were on foot. Well done.

HBM, enjoy the day. Herb

Ecobird ^club has replied to Herb Riddle ^club

Thank you very much Herb. I must admit I thought this part of the island in particular was stunning, especially the beaches. Unfortunately we only had a week there and you needed longer than that to see Lewis and Harris properly. I would love to go back there some time

HBM and have a great new week

Remarquable et excellente capture.On remarque que le temps a laissé
son empreinte sur le banc,ce qui fait le charme de la prise de vue
qui reste imprenable avec ce magnifique dégradé de bleu...!

Ehrlich gesagt, würde ich einen Gang auf dem traumhaften Strand vorziehen, anstatt hier auf der Bank zu sitzen. Die Bank hat leider nur noch eine positive Eigenschaft, sie ist fotogen.

The fencing and the deterioration of the rusty bank suggests that this coast must receive the strong impact of the waves. The music selection is delicious. Greetings, Anton.
