The picture above shows a man standing on
the Capitola Wharf. His arms are folded and his head is turned right as he
gazes to the hillside and houses next to the wharf entrance. A pigeon sits
in the wharf water basin used to clean fish caught on this free California
fishing pier.
Capitola wharf is represented in an
artistic manner in a photo that was actually a real picture transformed into
art through use of digital manipulation. The cottages in the background that
are painted bright colors look artistic in their own right, but they
especially lend to an interpretation of a watercolor or acrylic style
painting. No doubt this scene has been captured countless times by artists
enjoying this very image and spot.
For visitors to Capitola, the city is a
mesmerizing place that glistens on a bay fronting the Pacific Ocean.
For those who have traveled California extensively, there's a section of
homes along a river channel that flows to the sea and while the topography
of the houses is not exactly the same, the style of houses are similar to
those sitting on the channels and canals of Naples in Long Beach.
