When I was a young boy I used to go to the sea shore to walk, to listen to the Sea, to feel the "energy" that was continuously coming from the Sea, changing every day, every second...
When I get married, I went to live far from the Sea (200km)... two years after, we came back to the Cantabric Sea and now, we still live here.
From then, I'm making pictures about life around this sea and I have thought I would create a new thread, about this pictures that I have shared before in different threads. I think it is interesting to put togehter these pictures.
These pictures have been made (and will be made) in a territory between two rivers: the first one is Atturri (Adour in French) and the second is "Urola". Why the space between this two rivers, because my life in the sea shore of Cantabric Sea has been (is being) there.
I will share, sea-scapes, street, sport, feast... pictures. Life around this beautiful sea.
I hope you will enjoy them.

In the first picture, I have shared a picture I made in Zarautz in summer, with a couple looking at the sunset.
In the second picture you will finde the phare of Zokoa. I made it at 21:53 (I can say it is nearly the same hour [22:00], but in this case, the picture was made in January 9th [2009]. It was winter.

It wasn't a cold night, so a fisherman went outside to smoke a cigarette. They were looking for schools of fish, so they had free time... while the ship was going from Hendaia to the east.

One night, while fishermen are at work, the sea, this time, gently caresses the rocks on the shore.

It was a full moon (Wolf moon) night and I took my tripod/camera/lens and went to the beach. The sea was down and it had a very special light.
The night is going forward...

The fishermen have begun to work in the deep night, in front of Biarritz, while the moon is waking up.

And at the opposite end, in Itzurun, the artificial lights illuminate the Flysch. Millions of years of geological history in front of your eyes, because the sea has gone down.
