Kyrenia mountains sunrise

The limestone ‘spine’ that runs the length of North Cyprus, lit by the early morning sun as it rises and is coloured by fine Saharan dust in the lower atmosphere.
Snapped from a viewpoint above the village of Lapta that nestles on the north of the ridge. North Cyprus, August 2024.

Colour landscape photograph: The limestone ‘spine’, that runs the length of North Cyprus, is back-lit by the early morning sun as it rises. Its glowing rays are tinted orange-red by fine Saharan dust in the lower atmosphere.

Pigeon.

Veranda view, from our new home in Lapta, North Cyprus. June 2024.

Black and white image: A pigeon flies below the camera, but over the panoramic view of an old monastery- repurposed as an old people’s home. We look down over an amazing view of the north Cyprus coastline and the village of Lapta.

Bubble play.

Kids enjoying soap bubbles blown by two clown-costumed carers during an Easter / Spring celebration event in North Cyprus. April 2024.

Black and white image: Under a stone colonnade in a garden, two clown-costumed adults entertain a group of young children by blowing and releasing soap bubbles. The kids’ faces reflect their delight.

Akdeniz

A remote 10km long, west-facing beach in North Cyprus. A great kitesurfing spot with a shallow sloping sandy shoreline and regular clean westerly winds from now through until July… My home-from-home for the next few months as I try and develop my kiting-chops!
March 2024.

Black and white image: In the foreground, on an exposed promontory in North Cyprus, the rusted turret of an old tank lies - with its gun barrel pointing to the right - out to sea.
Behind this, stretching into the far distance is a long, gradually curving sandy beach. A choppy sea breaks against the beach from the right of picture. To the left lie scrub-covered dunes.
In the distant background lie the Troodos Mountains, and - above these - a line of clouds in an otherwise clear sky.
Along the beach, hang the many kites of the community of kite-surfers that gather here whenever a westerly wind blows.

Happy Sea.

A image of the bow of a fishing boat reflected in the water of Girne Harbour, North Cyprus, February 2024.
(edited for typo’s in alt-text)

Black and white image: Under a grey cloudy sky, the bow of the fishing boat ‘Happy Sea’ is reflected in the rippling water of a harbour. The image has been mirror-manipulated in post-capture to allow the reflected vessel’s name to be read clearly.

Tall format - please click for full image.

Black and white candid image: An older gentleman strolls along a quiet dockside on a Sunday afternoon. The Mediterranean Sea behind him is calm. The man is tall, slim and slightly stooped - and he carries a water bottle clasped in his hands behind his back. He’s wearing a quilted jacket over an open-collared checked shirt and smart trousers. His looks lost in thought.
