Bluetide

 
Bluetide

Bluetide tells, in photographs and text, about the power of the sea and its impact on the people in the little North Portuguese fishing village Apùlia. The village is situated at the Western coast of Portugal, which is hit by rough winter storms every year, when sand masses are carried away with the waves. Several houses had already fallen into the sea, and after a couple of years, Cedobém, the fishers' settlement of Apùlia, would be swallowed by the Atlantic Ocean.
