The Shores of Eilat (56K Die!)

[The Grim Squeaker]

Photos from my recent trip to the Southernmost tip of Israel, the beach resort of Eilat.
I spent most of the (2.5 day) trip scuba diving (no pictures from there unfortunately, I don't have a waterproof camera/case and the rental was exorbitant), but I also wandered the beaches near our hotels and took some photos. A few of my photos of semi-Hot chicks are at the end of the thread .

The ISrael/Jordan border

I have another shot showing this from afar, it's a line of massive luxury hotels (Herods, Hilton, Meridien etc') on the ISraeli side then nothing for kilometers before a ramshackle pile of houses on the Jordanian side.
A pity I couldn't cross, the scuba diving in Sinai is supposed to be absolutely amazing.

That's the Jordanian side (beautiful mountains, if less multicoloured than the ones on our side which look like a gamut of ice cream colours)

Eilat-57

Fucking big flag . That's the Jordanian side.

Spot the spelling mistake

Kocher. (Should be "Kosher")

Plane flying in

There's a tiny airport there, the planes come in very close to some of the hotels' roofs.

Decided to take one of your pictures and give it the Fuji Velvia effect.



I think it would be kinda neat to do the supersaturated high contrast look on some of your landscapes, make the colours richer & more vivid than reality.

That might work with some of the mountains, but the beach and the shot you showed are already strongly saturated, it just looks unnatural (in an unintersting way) like that .
Normally, I usually love the velvia effect though. (with flowers ad whatnot ).

Thanks. You can tell the difference?
