Decay (LXXIV)


Former beach bar at Parede built in 1959 and destroyed by the ocean in the 1980's.
Every winter parts of the building are washed away.

Wonderful framing!

Sounds like it might have been built a little to close to the sea. It makes a nice photo frame now.

@Sharon: The water is rising, that's the problem and this kind of destruction has been happening in many places of our coast on the last decades, not only on beach bars and restaurants, but also on fishermen houses.

It did make for a nice shot.

All things must pass. Second Law of Thermodynamics. Heat death of the universe. Might as well go pour another glass of wine.

Great photo and interesting about water rising. There are several houses perched directly over the water where I live and I wonder if it's just a matter of time..

Looks like a few places around here, but here it is mostly for economic reasons, I think.
