Air 2s A few pics from Martinique island

[Miguel972]

Hi all. Here are some pics of my living place, Martinique.

We start with the spectacular Diamond Rock that is 175 meters high


The same Diamond Rock seen from the beach


The infamous volcano Mount Pelée who killed 30 000 people in 1902


Did you say green island ?


The pier of the "Club Med"

I hope you enjoyed these pics ;-)

Nice! Any filters used?

 

[Miguel972]

Nope. Just a light processing in Lightroom.
Thanks ;-)

Great shots - I like the second one with Diamond Rock from a distance. All of them are good, that one stands out to me.

This is sargassum seaweed. A real plague plague in the Caribbean for about 7-8 years now :-(

You can see in attachment a picture I took here in Martinique a few weeks ago

Sargassum: Brown Tide Threatens the Caribbean

A decade after the first sargassum blooms were spotted in the South Atlantic, these massive brown mats of macro-algae represent one of the largest ecological threats to the Caribbean.

Is Sargassum seaweed or algae? The linked article calls it algae.

Google check"...massive brown mats of macro-algae"

It indeed is an alga, like Dale pointed out, it is a large, multicellular alga. The sargassum sea (large area in the Atlantic) has been around for a long time.

The OP called it seaweed, which is why I asked.
