young man sits fishing
perched on broken building blocks
subduing rough sea

The young man is one of two people we spotted fishing on this side of the sea wall.
The wall surrounds the calmer harbor of Alexandria.
Here’s another photo for perspective.
Do you see him? (Click to enlarge.)
Can you find the second man/woman in medium blue clothes?
Notice the line of unbroken stacked building blocks in the distance, along the sea wall,
and the gleaming roof of the new Alexandria Library across the harbor.

Thanks, Fran! I just tried to get to your new blog (via your gravatar) but couldn’t. I’m going to try going through from my Reader, but don’t know if it will work. Just wanted you to know–and throw me a lifeline if you can!!!:) I want to go visit you….

Had to enlarge twice to see the two people. Really interesting picture. Thanks for sharing and for your poem.

Hi, Anne. Yes, I had to do the same–and am happy this particular photo will do that. Perspective is such a tricky thing. As is sitting out there on that broken block fishing on the seaward side of the wall. Hmm. Makes me think.
