Only 2 albums this year but both with will be a larger than 'normal' as I shot everything with digital cameras, including my new, mono only, Pentax K3 III M. My last rolls of monochrome film didn't process well, so took the opportunity to get the new and pretty unique Pentax K3 III Mono and this was its first real try out. The link below takes you to the collection with the two albums which I'm adding to daily: Halki 2023Steve

It does seem to be Liz. Our new 'rookie' will give me a close up view every year. Miss being able to monitor the crack above the window which was readily visible from the alleyway and did seem to be slowly but surely widening. May be someone with deep pockets and a bit of vision will buy it before it collapses into the harbour one winter storm.

You'd like to think so .. but the word I'm hearing is that 'they' are waiting for it to collapse .. such a shame .. beautiful features that are unique

It's owned by an Italian solicitor I understand and he's looking for e750K. A shot I took from the water taxi on the way back from Kania shows there are actually three cracks in the masonry above the upper window level. The center and left hand ones (viewed from the seaward side) are relatively new, so it's likely to start to fail a lot sooner than with just the original crack. Not sure the owner has got the license needed to restore/rebuild it - don't recall seeing any numbering code on the building but then again, wasn't particularly looking for it.
