Shipwrecks

Shipwrecks are fertile ground for symbol and metaphor. This photo of a shipwreck on a beach in Socotra can symbolize the afterman of bad decisions or poor planning. It can be testament to the destructive power of mother nature, or the results of navigation errors. The batter hull on the sand beach is testimony to Murphy's law that what can go wrong will go wrong!

Adventure Travel On Socotra Island

I photographed this wrecked ship on the island of Socotra off the coast of Yemen. The boat had obviously been wrecked for quite some time. I would have preferred to have a nice storm in the background rather than such a beautiful sunny day...but hey, at least I was able to enjoy the sunshine! Socotra island is a great place for adventure travel and unique vacations. It features everything from secluded white sand beaches to mountain vistas to breathtaking canyons, not to mention the rare and beautiful Dragon Blood Trees and the fat and cute Bottle Trees.
