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.

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 #8652252Christine Lobsinger May 29, 2010
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...SMILING WITH YOU,
