Could this be the last stand?

Could this be the last stand?
The 28th February is here, and we still don't seem to have any real messages about Ipernity's future.

Charles Trenet - La Mer

La mer - a bercé mon cœur pour la vie.

The sea - has rocked my heart for life

This is a very nice shot. I hope that if they were really going to close today they would have had the courtesy to have given us some advanced warning!

Let's hope it's not the last stand Amelia, but a beautiful shot to end with if it is!
Cheers...and hopefully see you here tomorrow, Rosa.

The Ipernity Members Association is still working very hard to save Ip, and now in the negotiations stage, Rosa. Let's hope it will turn out well. I have my HFF photo at the ready. ;-)
Cheers, Amelia

Just been posted by William Sutherland in the Ipernity Members Association Project group here on ipernity:

Good morning/afternoon,

We are still in discussions with Ipernity S.A. re: the future of this site and its transfer. Negotiations are ongoing to protect the best interests of the members. At the same time we are investigating crowdfunding options so we can take the next step when negotiations are concluded.

I have read William's page, Keith. He and the others (you?) are really doing sterling work, We can but hope that the IMA is successful.

We continue to STAND FIRM, as this gull did!. :-)))

Not directly involved Amelia, not since I did my unofficial user survey ... just cheering on from the sidelines now and hoping for the best! ;)

Great timing and a lovely shot Amelia,
Like Mick I remember the Bobby Darin version indeed I have it my collection.

Amelia club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
I think it was Charles Trenet's version that accompanied Mr.Bean on his holiday, Roger. Bobby Darin's version is good, but lacks the passion I think. ;-)

Keats is my guide, cultivating —" Negative Capability, that is, when a man is capable of being in uncertainties, mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact and reason."

Failing that, it helps to sit and watch the sea. Beautiful photograph!

Amelia club has replied to Steve Bucknell club
I think I may not have reached the state of Negative Capability, Steve. But being by the sea certainly helps. ;-)

I think a lot of work is being done to save Ipernity, George, and we are all hanging on - a bit like this gull.

Smashing image Amelia..........you've captured the wave action perfectly.

That structure looks as if it's got a good few years left in it.............I just hope IP has as well. I was intending to leave after today, but I think I'll hang around just a bit longer and see what develops.

Amelia club has replied to Keith Burton club
A lot of work is done on the east coast, Keith, and the groynes sit on iron foundations. But those are rusting. Much of the fragile coast is falling into the sea. I hope this doesn't happen to Ipernity. I'll keep on posting ...

A fine capture of crashing waves, Amelia. I never get tired of such show...I could stay hours watching the sea, either calm or rough.
Let's hope it won't be the last stand!

Amelia club has replied to Adele club
I love the sea, Adele, and used to live within a short walk of it when I lived in Scotland as a child. Most people are drawn towards the ever-changing moods and the open skies.

The breaking waves are mesmerizing, I could easily spend a long time there!
Well, I'm glad William has posted in the IMO group because Team Ipernity seem to have gone AWOL.

Amelia club has replied to Gudrun club
I'm at my happiest by the coast too, Gudrun, and spend hours looking at waves and sky. Team Ipernity are very quiet, but at least the IMA are still active. We live in uncertain times!

Amelia this is so beautiful

We're so lucky to have one of our daughters living in Norfolk, Pam. It doubles the pleasure of family visits.
I was brought up in St,Andrews, haven''t lived there for 60 years - and still miss it. I don't know how you survive, ;-)

Amelia club has replied to ROL/Photo club
Thank you. The light by the sea is always fantastic even when it's raining. For me it's the wide open skies and the sound of the waves breaking on the shore.

... the kind of shot I always enjoy: structure of the pilings (receding away too) and splash of the little wave ... attractive shoreline shot, and nicely composed ...
