Lanzarote
In September 2008 I went to Lanzarote, my first holiday outside Britain and Ireland since my trip to Hawaii in 1984. I suppose I feel drawn to places with volcanoes. Cameras used Canon EOS 3, & Canon A 85 |
Mirador del Rio looking out on La Graciosa |
 |
Here I am attempting to show the incredible height the viewing platform is from the shoreline way below, 480 meters. |
 |
Looking south along the west coast, an area I would like to explore if ever I went back |
 |
These next series of pictures I took during a walk to the west of Costa Teguise. For about 4 hours I was totally alone in a desert area, where when the wind was sheilded, the sun was powerfully hot. This picture is looking north past a cairn |
 |
An interesting circle as I headed for the mountain in the distance, where the picture above was taken from |
 |
Maybe made by children having fun, or teenagers larking around, who knows? They made for interesting subjects to photographs on my day of escape from the hoardes of the resort |
 |
I wanted to climb the mountain you see here, but the wind was too strong. I love the shades of brown here |
 |
Off the beaten track I found this beautiful plant growing |
