Current Mood:
Cool
I’m publishing my PhotoHunt early, because who knows when I’ll find the time after tonight… Tomorrow I need to do some serious shopping!! Apart from that, I’ve known all week what I’m going to post for the theme – Wide - it fits just perfectly my Tokina wide-angle lens!
You’ll notice that I’ve learnt a few new photoshop skills, I couldn’t resist putting them to test. (Big thank-you to my son – or then again, not, because now I’m spending even more time with my photos!!)
The first was taken at the same place and time as my breakfast photohunt a while back, albeit after breakfast, showing the bay of Marsalforn:

Then there’s one of my favourite places for photo-shooting, Dwejra. The wide angle really dwarfs the gigantic rock. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Gozo: there are actually two people walking right on top, those tiny dots you can see about half a finger-width to the left of the arch!

Last but not least, this is the lobby of the hotel where I work:

As usual, larger versions of the pics are found in my photoblog, but I’m too lazy to set the links right now…
I’m off now to find a cosy place in this house. My hands and feet are freezing. Yes, it is cold over here: 11°C the last time I checked, and inside it’s not much warmer. These are not normal temperatures for December – but then, you hardly find “normal” weather anywhere any more, eh?
Oh, I don’t want to forget: if you happen to be in Gozo tomorrow, don’t miss Chasing Pandora!! They are going to play in Arkadia’s function hall at 6 pm – and there’s going to be a wine-tasting too!! Chasing Pandora’s last Gozo gig at the Astra was cancelled – I’m keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow!
Happy weekend everyone!

Beautiful shots! I especially like the selective colored tree. I have a wide angle shot as well this week! Happy hunting.
Those are all wonderful shots for the wide theme. Happy Weekend and I hope you have a great Christmas! Thanks for visiting us at Snap2Days.
Lovely testaments to the beauty of Gozo and your photography skills! :)
Great shots. I love that rocky shore and the scene across the water. Happy weekend and a happy Christmas
Lovely photo’s. Especially liked the phot taken in Marsalforn with that table in the foreground. The colours of the lobby at Kempinsky amazed me for I can’t imagine it being so greyish there.
Sabine, wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas!
Ooooo, these are great! They’re all terrific. Each one is stunning. Wonderful picks for our “wide” theme this week.
Many blessings to you & yours this Christmas!
Peeping to other PH players. Nice photos and I like the xmas tree, have a merry xmas to you and your family.
I’m playing too, here’s mine.
Gorgeous photos! Especially loved the reds of the Christmas tree balanced by the touches of red above the reception desk! Very artistic!
