This black-and-white photograph shows a man sitting on a wooden bench on the shore of Marsaxlokk harbor in Malta. He is wearing a striped T-shirt, shorts, and shoes. His posture is relaxed, with one arm resting on the back of the bench. He is holding his head with his right hand, as if dazed by the summer heat. Other people, palm trees, buildings, and boats can be seen in the background, creating a lively atmosphere. The composition of the image follows the principles of diagonals and perspective, with the man placed at the center and the viewer's gaze guided along the harbor. Das Schwarz-Weiß-Foto zeigt einen Mann, der auf einer Holzbank am Ufer des Hafens von Marsaxlokk auf Malta sitzt. Er trägt ein gestreiftes T-Shirt, kurze Hosen und Schuhe. Seine Haltung ist entspannt, mit einem Arm auf der Rückenlehne der Bank. Mit der rechten Hand hält er sich den Kopf, wie benommen von der sommerlichen Hitze. Im Hintergrund sind weitere Personen, Palmen, Gebäude und Boote zu sehen, die eine lebhafte Atmosphäre vermitteln. Die Komposition des Bildes folgt der Regel der Diagonalen und Perspektiven, wobei der Mann im Zentrum platziert ist und der Blick des Betrachters entlang des Hafens geführt wird.

Today's #MomentofTranquility: Some of the neolithic houses of Skara Brae. I can imagine them actually being quite cozy with roofs, fires in the hearths, and soft bedding to sleep on.

The long abandoned stone houses of Skara Brae, with a hearth in the centre for fire, and stone beds and furniture.

Today's #MomentofTranquility: Bridgetown Abbey. The ruins of this 13th century abbey in county Cork are a serious contender for one of the most tranquil sites in Ireland. There were no cars, no voices, no traffic. Just birds and a gentle river.

Today's #MomentofTranquility: Scotland's Dirleton Castle. Building began in 1240, Cromwell's army attacked it in 1650 and badly damaged it. The ruins were made into a central garden feature in the 1660's. Certainly better than a garden gnome.
