Shining lights on a Dalmatian shore Broken little mirrors on an aqua sea provides the backdrop for boys wrestling on a concrete diving board Girls soaking each other with a push button tap The thin old man in speedos intervenes One hand holding a roll up The other gesturing in Croatian The setting sun behind the city of Split Is a rusty heat haze for swallows to dart over Truffle oil fills the air from the cafe A couple use sign language to speak as the sea roars in Backs and shoulders covered in beautiful inked art with Angels, crosses and devils Pine trees provide shelter on the stony beach Families playing cards and laughing. The church bells signal it is time to go in We start up the hill and look back at the sky. A night to remember and a night to repeat.

Reflections on a Croatian shore
Shining lights on a Dalmatian shore Broken little mirrors on an aqua sea provides the backdrop for boys wrestling on a concrete diving board Girls soaking each other with a push button tap The thin old man in speedos intervenes One hand holding a roll up The other gesturing in Croatian The setting sun behind the city of Split Is a rusty heat haze for swallows to dart over Truffle oil fills the air from the cafe A couple use sign language to speak as the sea roars in Backs and shoulders covered in beautiful inked art with Angels, crosses and devils Pine trees provide shelter on the stony beach Families playing cards and laughing. The church bells signal it is time to go in We start up the hill and look back at the sky. A night to remember and a night to repeat.
