Shadow Shot Sunday


Shadow Shot Sunday again. See Hey Harriet for a list of participants.
Pictures by my daughter Claudia Schmid.
The mosque at Diabat just outside Essouira. This small village is being altered out of all recognition to make a resort with golf courses and so on. Bulldozers are razing the hill.
A pity.
They want to make it into "TheSt.Tropez of Morocco."



The amazing Portuguese water cistern in El Jadia another coastal town.
This site was used by Orson Wells in his Othello which is a very strange film.



Cafe Hafa just outside Tangiers - where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean.
