Views on the Promenade of Nice

The Promenade d’Anglais in the French city of Nice is one of the oldest urban beachfronts in the world. In English, the name translates to Promenade of the English because at the beginning of the early 1800s, primarily British noblemen and aristocrats came here to spend their winter vacations in the warmth of the Mediterranean. Later, the first hotels were built at the sea, and a walkway at the coast came into being. The pictures were shot in February 2019.

Island of Strong Winds

The island of Fuerteventura is well known for the strong winds hitting it frequently and making for solid waves. These circumstances were not very favorable to seafarers but are very welcome today to many birds living on the island and to the surfers visiting it for the waves. In fact, the name of the land itself, Fuerteventura, points to this natural phenomenon as it means nothing else than solid wind.
