Paintings of Cadiz

There were a number of different sights along our explorations that simply begged to be converted to photo paintings, and I just had to oblige…..

Park Along the Sea Wall

In addition to the large Banyan trees in the park, there were lovely walkways just lined with greenery and streetlights, with lovely tiled walkways beneath our feet.

End of Summer Bloom

As I mentioned before, it was the beginning of November, so a lot of the flowers that were in the botanic garden in the park were no longer in bloom.  But this one lovely pink beauty was still showing off!

The Red Boat

Along the beach by the Spa, I spotted this little red boat.  I couldn’t resist capturing an image of it and making a painting of it.  Makes you just want to run down, climb inside and take it out for a row around the bay, doesn’t it?

Little Dingy

This little boat had more of a lonely feel to it, I thought.  Still, it does create a peaceful feel, just floating out in the shallow water close to shore.

La Palma Spa Beach

Here’s the beach scene that I mentioned in a previous blog post.  It really was a very peaceful beach, probably because it was at the end of the season, altho it was still quite warm out.  I imagine the people down at the beach found it easy to forget the city behind them as they gazed out at the sea and sky.

Boats Along the Shore

And, finally, here’s a shot of the boats just outside the walls of Castillo de Santa Catalina.  Peaceful times now, but not in the past.

Enjoy!
