Syria

photo 381
Whilst we were in Cyprus the BBCNews24 covered a lot of the troubles in Syria. It was odd to think that we were sat completely relaxed on one edge of this sea during a gorgeous sunset whilst those the other side of the same sea were so troubled. You can't see it in this photo but on some days you could actually see land on the horizon. That was Syria.

Will catch up with 365 tonight! x

what a beautiful image. I often think the same when I am at a waters edge somewhere - what lies at the other side of it and is that a happy or sad place. the blues are great here

Oh this is beautiful... looks wonderfully calm and peaceful.
I remember looking at a map over there and noticing how close Cyprus was to a lot of the world's trouble-spots - thinking I wasn't surprised they were so hot on security...

Gorgeous serene view. I love the ripples and it is odd to think of the trouble just over the sea xx

Really like this view ..... The calm before the storm which is the darkness of Syria.

A really stunning photo! With the peace and beauty radiating from it in stark contrast to the troubles that lay just beyond its boundaries.
