It was an interesting trip going to Torrox beach. Actually I had in mind going to this little idyllic town called Torrox, I had looked up in the internet, but then I accidently went off the bus one station too early and found myself in the middle of a “Las Vegas” made for German tourists. If Martin Parr would make movies, i would have definitely felt like being right in the middle of one. This place was flooded of artificiality, all waiters talking German, typical offers like tapas and sangria 2 for 1 written in fluorescent letters. At the beginning i was quite frustrated because of being there, because i really hate these touristic impersonal places, but it is a good and funny training for the mind and makes you thing about the absurdity of life. Thanks for that Torrox Beach.

At the end i found this spot at the beach I really liked and without my getting lost I wouldn´t have it in my collection of Malaga pictures.

looking thew my images I found this image I made in Bilbao at the beach. I really like the combination of the colors.

Before yesterday seemed to be the last day of summer in Bilbao. I was at the beach taking some pictures for a new series I am planing to do and then suddenly I saw this man standing there.

I immediately knew that this was the new picture for my blog.

I definitely sympathize with Martin Parr.  People at the beach really do have something special, maybe it is because somehow they remind me of reptiles exposing themselves to the sun.
