The Izmir Bay after the rain

Rain never lasts for long in Izmir and the bay looks even better straight after a shower. The harbour almost deserted this very day is on the right and in the far, on the left are the marshes with their salts bassins and birds nesting.

Windy Day

Winter is slowly showing up and the cold is late this year. We still walk with relatively little protection. So here is a picture from January. The place is the famous Kordon, the name given to the Izmir's shoreline promenade. 

The last of the Immortal

Olive Trees are considered immortal. New shoots coming out of the roots, the tree seems able to duplicate himself and thus open the legend to the never dying tree. This one is several hundred years old, who really knows? How many lifes begenning or ending has he see? I wonder who is the keeper, the Kangal dog or the Olive tree?
