[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [French]
Fine sand, turquoise sea (Red Sea), I found this little corner withdrawal of beaches packed with tourists.
The village itself is a miniature Las Vegas (without games), neon lights everywhere, a shopping center with "craftmen", an exceptional welcome (3 merchants invited me to drink tea without any attempt to sell me); for the beaches, they are all beautiful (be careful not to cut with coral), with all major international hotel chains; well some luxury which at the beginning make me uncomfortable, especially when you were coming from cities like Dendera or the campaign of Luxor, where there is quite the opposite, sunburnt grass, skeletal animals, children who sleep outside (it was 5am. Morning). But a trip to have.

The grainy quality of the photo gives it a 70's look. I would have cropped some of the sand or I would have taken the picture a little closer to the wreck to get more of the beautiful turquoise. I still like it.
