Karel’s by Night, by Jake Richter

“Karel’s Beach Bar takes a rest — offering bright lights intermingled with a serene sort of tranquility, as all one hears is the water lapping the shores of the promenade, and all one sees is the ever changing reflection of Karel’s lights on the dappled surface of the sea.”

This is a really cool photo — or is it a digitally painted photo, which is what photographer/artist Jake Richter likes to do? I like that’s it a slice of life in Bonaire, and I like how the postcard text matches my imaginings of a quiet island life 🙂 Karel’s even has a website: www.karelsbeachbar.com/index.php/page/beachbar/ As does Jake Richter: www.jakerichter.com/index.html Thanks to my sister Jessica for these two postcards representing a husband/wife pair who left the hustle and bustle for a quieter existence on the Caribbean island of Bonaire!
