Description

Wednesday, I was on the Beach. There, during last Full Moon, someone has built a strange tribe of stone characters with rocks picked up around. Nobody knows who he is, but the result is fantastic! In the pictures, those odd creatures seem to contemplate the Milky Way. On the right, Jupiter is reflecting in the ocean. In this gallery, you'll see many other pictures taken that night.
