Further views over Dubrovnik old town

On one of the days during our holiday in Dubrovnik, I left my wife reading her book on the roof terrace of the hotel while I got the bus into town and took a walk all the way around the city walls which encompass the Old Town. It was a very warm day and there is little shelter atop the wall (although there was a place selling reasonably priced drinks, and a somewhat more expensive bar restaurant at various points of the circuit), but there were plenty of other people doing the same thing.

There are a number of places where you can enter various turrets, and I took a number of pictures looking out of these, one of which is included below, and I also tool many other photographs, some of which I’ve already posted, and quite a few still to come (although I think these are the last city wall shots in colour).

Cliff jumping

I spent a few minutes atop the Dubrovnik city wall watching people leap into the sea from the rocks above the water. At the time I wasn’t sure if this photo would work, mostly because I wondered if the people jumping would be noticeable in the frame (they aren’t, really – although I dig catch one of them mid-leap), but it works nicely as a landscape picture with the composition making it look almost like a large lake or fjord.
