[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Entry to Tarifa port. Morocco in background.

statue of Virgen Del Carmen, is the Virgin of the fisherman and sea, celabrated on 16th July.

Tarifa is a small town on the southernmost part of Spain and of the European continent. It is part of the province of Cádiz, which in turn is part of the Andalucia region. The name "Tarifa" is derived from the Berber fighter Tarif ibn Malik. The town is located at the Costa de la Luz ("coast of the light") and the Straits of Gibraltar, opposite the coast of Morocco, from which the lights of Tarifa are visible at night.

There are regular ferries between Tarifa and the nearby Moroccan city, Tangier.

Hi Marcin.
Really good composition and the whole photo but itself.
The composition is clever and the note good too.

In a simply phrase: this photo belongs to TE.

Carlos.

A great photo, Marcin, and a reminder of how close Africa is to Spain. It reminds me of the crossing from Algeciras to Ceuta I made in 1976 when I arrived in Africa but didn't realise that in Ceuta I was still in Spain.
