Red Sea and Jetty

Red Sea and Jetty

This was shot from our balcony at the Red Sea Riviera Hyatt at Taba in the Sinai region of Egypt. It's a simple late-afternoon view - although I quite like the composition: the round sunshade on the beach, then the leading line of the jetty into the water, followed by the mountains shrouded in haze on the other side of the sea. As with every day at this resort it was exceedingly hot. So hot that you couldn't really walk on the sand without flip-flops on. Unfortunately we both got botulism and spent half the week in bed. But that's a story for another day...
