THE FIRST MORNING OF THE FIRST DAY OF A PROMISING NEW YEAR

avatar
(Edited)

More often than not, the morning after New Year's Eve looks like the same shit you left behind with the passing of the old, decrepit year. The weather is usually the same, therefore, if something otherworldly or catastrophic doesn't happen, everything appears unchanged by the change of the Calendar on one's wall. I'm glad to report that this wasn't the case today, here where I live.

Today and yesterday look like two opposite entities that successfully separate the old from the new.

It's a beautiful day that started with a fabulous morning. In this photograph, you can see the boats and their reflections on the calm water of the harbor.

(Enlargeable)

Here you can see the desert I visited a bit later. I mean, it resembles a desert, but ...

(Enlargeable)

... but the photograph was taken on the beach.

(Enlargeable)

Here you can see the only plant I saw growing in the sand, there on the beach. For me, this was a highlight of that morning experience. The gracile little plant looked kinda epic in the morning light.
The name of the species is Cakile maritima.

(Enlargeable)

On the terrace of the beach bar that works only in summer, I found a lighter that can't light a shit in its current condition. It's a dead little machine. A corpse of the fucking lighter. Good luck getting cancer by lighting a cigarette with this lovely little piece of garbage.

On the wooden planks of the bar's facade, I found this little ode to Tetrahydrocannabinol some local dude or dudette left in memoriam of a good beach party.

(Enlargeable)

This shot allows you to take a look at some distant pines and other beach bars and booths further along the shore.

These booths were much closer to me while I was photographing what the beach had to offer on the first morning of the brand new year.

(Enlargeable)

In this photograph, you can see a happy polar bear joyfully jumping while the polar ice is melting. You can also see one of the only few buildings situated very close to the beach and the sea.
In summer, the restaurant on the ground floor offers bland food at salty prices.
The rooms above the restaurant are fine, and the view from the terrace is well worth the price.

(Enlargeable)

The place is called Bijetza and is generally considered the most attractive beach in town. Now, if you don't know much about me, you may wonder what town I'm talking about here.

(Enlargeable)

The town in question is Medulin.
In this photograph, I zoomed in on the houses in its center and the iconic church on the top of the small hill about six or seven hundred meters from the beach.
The name of the church is Saint Agnes. I mean, the Church of St. Agnes.
It was built in 1894 in the place of a much smaller cemetery chapel.

IMG_3392 malo.jpg

Here you can see the lamps in the place called "Family Park"
It's an amusement park for small children.
The lamps resemble flowers or some long-necked alien animals similar to the birds and dinosaurs we know from the past and present of our fantastic planet.

(Enlargeable)

Every year new buildings are added to the area near the beach. Here you can see one that has been in construction since 2022.

AND THAT'S IT. MAY 2024 ALONG WITH THE GOOD, BAD, AND UGLY FORCES THAT HAVE A MAJOR INFLUENCE ON THIS PLATFORM BE KIND TO YOU. AS ALWAYS HERE ON HIVE, THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MY WORK.

Oh! what an amazing view on a new year day like this. I love the growing plants, it is passing a message across to me "you can always be who you want to be as long as you water your efforts.

And of course, I love the photo of the boats, the reflection is wow!

You have a way with words and you don't f***ing care.... Hahahaha. Your photo essay speaks to me, from the foggy ambiance of 2023 to the calm and glassy water of 2024. Could this be significant in a way? I think so. This year would certainly be better.
The sandy Beach with footprints from all times and from different people, who has left indelible marks good or bad.
The little lone guy on the sandy shores is a lesson in resilience and strong resolve.
The beautiful beach bars, buildings and Parks goes to show the beauty of Medulin.
Honestly I hope this year beautifies us in all ways.
Happy New Year once again, with many more photos from your Town.

🙂🌈🙂 I wish you a Happy New Year one more time in return.

This is a fragment of the fireworks in the sky above my hometown. I added a few dots and lines in Photoshop but the core of the image is real fireworks.

In this country, the day after New Year's Eve we see people asleep on the floor, at dawn we hear fights and even injuries taken away in an ambulance, all because of the liquor, even some couples that we knew are so happy hahahaha, insults are shouted at each other. , hahahaha, there are all kinds of attitudes that at the beginning of the night, change in the early morning, we human beings are something strange to say the least.

Yes. 😃 People can easily get from civilized to wild with liquor. Incidents and shit can happen in those circumstances but without a bit of wild behavior, a place can get dull and boring.
Here where I live, people used to be less restrained and very funny some decades ago. The parties were great and long. Nowadays the place is very boring. I mean, it's great for me becouse I'm getting old so I like the quiet atmosphere. I don't drink or take any kind of drugs now. But if it was like that when I was a teenager, it would have looked like hell to me.

I just discovered this format of photo essays on Hive. I really enjoy the combination of the pi tures with the background in words accompanying the pictures!
Great write-up with even greater pictures! :D

Yes, the photo essay is a cool format that let you create photo stories about whatever you like.
