Down By The Sea...

Down By The Sea...
Down By The Sea...
Elements Of Design - May 2010

One of my treasures I found 'down by the Sea'...
To feast my lens upon this!!! Simply stunning craftmanship of strength and beauty!
A magnificant "Work Of Art" to me... made of seashells imbedded in rock-stucco with gorgeous green glass and wood.
(West Bay, Roatan, Honduras- Foster's Beach in the Caribbean).

I scuba dived in Roatan island in college many years ago. Other than the Hotel I stayed in the island was fairly run down. I am very surprised to see this kind of craftmanship there.

Nice find. It is unbelievable craftsmanship and beauty.

  Hello Bruce, nice to see you back...
hey, if you have time look at this-www.fostersroatan.com
this is where I found the amazing architecture! We want to go back to Roatan- West Bay- it is OUT OF THIS WORLD! They offer treehouses to rent/cabanas/a hotel and condos.. West Bay is the most beautiful place I've ever seen and Sandy Bay, near there, including West Bay, also offers some of the WOrld's most spectacular scuba diving!
SMILING WITH YOU,
CHRiS

You're right, the craftmanship of this entire building is wonderful! This door in particular is incredibly beautiful! I've always liked Mermaids! Fantastic capture, my friend! :)

  No WAY! Feasting your lens is RIGHT! WOW! This is the most beautiful doorway EVER!

I know it's usually the rant and rave to get old European doors or bright colored South American ones, and it true...but I think this is more my style and taste!

THIS IS SO SO AWESOME. WOWZA!

Makes me want to have my front door ripped out and we can put this one in! Hee hee! (Since the door got ripped out anyway right? HA!)

What more can I say. Love it Chrissy!

  Hi Christine: Let's rest a minute and have a Margarita! I really like all the unique materials they used in the building. You just know that it has to be in a vacation resort. You have shared your trip with all of us, the only thing lacking is the after-glow. Thank you for another wonderful image. Merna

  Ha... great writing Merna... I do have an image of a Belizean Beer... the best beer in Belize... you know why? Because, it is the only one in Belize...
it was 95 degrees that day after the trip to the 'Best Little Zoo in the World' and I just needed something quick to drink... they did not have any margaritas! LOL..
THANK YOU AGAIN for your Support..

SMILING WITH YOU,
CHRiS
