Puerto de San Miguel, Ibiza

 Puerto de San Miguel is a small resort on the northern coast of Ibiza. Originally growing up around the fishing industry, the village became a tourist destination with it's quiet family resort away from the crowds and clubbing scene that Ibiza is more known for.

These pictures were taken in July 2014 with a Polaroid is2132 bridge camera. I had taken a boat along the coast from Portinatx where I was staying to see San Miguel and the nearby Cova de Can Marca. There are 13 pictures taken around the village to see below and on Clickasnap.

Hotel Club Sirocco.

 This is not a review, just a small selection of pictures I took around the Hotel Club Sirocco, Costa Teguise in July-August 2013. These have sat on my hard drive for 9 years and I wasn't sure what to do with them as the hotel was fantastic during my stay there but I have no idea what it's like now and from looking online believe it to be an adults only hotel now. When I stayed my wife and then 14 year old daughter were with me and the hotel made a fuss of her on her birthday when we were staying.

They were taken on various dates during July-August 2013, out of 31 pictures taken around the hotel with a Samsung Galaxy Tablet, the 6 below are probably the best to share on here and Clickasnap where they can be seen full size, resolution and un-watermarked.

for the plants that need little water to survive. Lanzarote being just off the
coast of Saharan Africa averages 16 days of rainfall per year.

 There's something hauntingly beautiful about old photographs, especially when they're presented in a way that flips our perception....
