....standing on top of the hill at the East side of Agadir which is known as Agadir Oufela and looking away from the main resort over part of the fishing port. The figures on the hill seemed to beckon to be photographed against the fading light of the evening. Look at the next photograph to see what they were pointing at. The Agadir Oufela is the only part of Agadir that stood when the town was hit by an earthquake in the 1960's and is now a memorial to all who died. I will post a picture of the side facing the main town tomorrow.

This is just an amazing photo. I love everything about it. I wish I could meet up with some of you guys sometime. Maybe then someone can teach me how to use a camera. LOL

I like the lighting. It fits the mood of the spot where tragedy struck so many years ago. Nice colors Patti.

The person in the black robes makes this for me - the sunset's beautiful and I like the view out to the sea, but including that person has really given it atmosphere. A different kind of composition from you.

Wow, I really AM behind, I thought I commented on this one already! This is an incredible shot. The inclusion of the person standing there marveling over the view truly gives the image personality and you captured the lighting so very well :)
