Christmas and computers


They speak for themselves.

Straw

Another one from the Delta trip. This is the straw used to thatch the roofs. It grows everywhere in the Delta, but isn't much harvested now. The morning light was coming from the right and bouncing off the grass, which gives an unusual uplighting effect on the straw.

Shell House

Another one from the Danube Delta. This was taken on a bright early morning with clear skies; the lack of any texture in the sky in the photograph shows this, there really wasn't any to show. The house is still in use, although not for humans, and the thatch roof is maintained. The next photo I upload will show the raw material, in the same early morning light.
