Worth the climb — the mirador above the bay near home

All four of us, somewhere shady, mid-July

First on the sand — the beach before breakfast

Dusk in Calella de Palafrugell, boats in for the night

Cove hunting along the Costa Blanca

White villages and blue domes

Shade, dunes and a picnic — our kind of beach day

Boats in, sun down

Running the wavy mosaic of the Explanada, Alicante

Sunrise over the salt lagoons at Torrevieja

Up on the Vila Vella walls at Tossa de Mar, beach far below

Rooftops, pines and the Medes Islands out beyond Begur

Clear water at Llafranc, halfway round the Camí de Ronda

Empty square, big stone church, midday heat
