Paris, In the courtyard of the Centre Georges Pompidou, is Brancusi's re-created studio. Constantin, organized his studio as a functional showcase for his ongoing work. Worth a visit and such a thrill to see the birthplace of so many spectacular sculptures.
I have been told that he was very reluctant to sell any of his sculptures. As necessity required it, he would part with his work for high prices. Then replace the work with a plaster copy so that the equilibrium of the studio, was restored.

Those dots on top of the fortified light house, are people. 20- 30 foot waves and the swells were insane. Beautiful viewing weather.

Moderate waves today but ....
A place Where I would hang, during my adolescence. Secluded and devoid of summer tourism due to the formidable waves that exist here, and no where else along the coast. Most of the times I was here with a new "beau".

When I was very young, my uncle was the lighthouse keeper. I would ask to go to the roof and watch the waves. They were so unpredictable. You would watch mid size waves, then out from the ocean would come a massive awe inspiring monster that would make such a thunderous crash.
Fast forward to today... videographers, photographers. Surfers and tourists. All due to Garrett MacNamara and his surfing of a monstrous wave here a few years back.
