24 Hours in the Life of an Island
(near Felanitx, at 00:40:23) Twenty-eight years ago today, I orchestrated an exciting photo event in Los Angeles, California, in collaboration with one Red Saunders. Together, we edited the book that […]
Solar Activity
I think that the weather in Mallorca is predominantly influenced by the moon. But the unstable weather pattern here over the last week or so with high winds may well […]
Sunset Boulevard
Many moons ago I walked the length of Sunset Boulevard, from downtown L. A. through Hollywood to Santa Monica and Pacific Palisades. Nothing quite equals the magnificent beauty of the Pacific […]
The Caló des Mac
On my walk along the beach of Cala Llombards the other day, I happened upon the Caló des Mac, a fascinating spot of raw Mallorcan coastal rock faces. A Caló […]
Gay Mallorca
Doing a daily photo blog about Mallorca for almost five years inevitably turns you into an authority on things Mallorcan, or so some readers think. The secret is, I am […]
Cala Llombards
I am not one for going to the beach a lot during the Summer. It is just too crowded for me when everybody else is there and his or her […]
The Caleta des Portals Vells
Sometimes blogging is an endless accumulation of irritation and annoyance. To me anyway. For a couple of months now I have been meaning to take a photo of the lighthouse […]
The Caló des Grells

The Weather Man
You may have noticed over time that I have a thing for the weather in Mallorca. I love this island and I am totally smitten with the weather here. More often […]

Cala Deià Revisited
I prefer going to the beach when other people don’t. Yesterday, I went to what must be one of the most beautiful sea inlets here in Mallorca, Cala Deià. To […]
Death Valley
What do you tell a friend who asks whether it will be safe to hike in the Torrent des Pareis in November? A hard one to answer if you feel […]
Contraband in Cala Murada
Cala Murada on the East Coast is as strange a place as you will ever find in Mallorca. When I first went there, some thirty years ago, elderly people sat […]
Cala d’Or, All Inclusive
I do not go to Cala d’Or very often; why should I? There was a time, years ago, when I went there to get some foreign newspapers. Now I read […]
Lost In Translation
October. Autumn is here. The weather is cooler now by quite a bit. This might be a good time for a nice walk or a hike to somewhere you haven’t […]
Cala Rotja (Canyamel)
Autumn is here. The heat has subsided. There was some heavy rain a few days ago with temperatures dropping considerably, and before you know it, one has to start thinking […]
