Photo of the Week: Wrecked Beauty

They say that there are two sides to Roatan Island, the tourist side that is covered in beautiful beaches and 5 star resorts and the other side where the locals live in basic shambles. However, I somehow found myself wandering the local side more often. I was drawn to the housing establishments that people had, and the amazing views that they enjoyed. When I came across this spot I got really excited. I snapped a shot, excited to show anyone that would take a look. But what I wanted them to notice was how amazing this place was, right on the water, sitting on stilts and facing the sunset. However, what everyone I showed this picture saw, was the wrecked state the house, dock and boat are in. To me, this is beauty… wrecked beauty.
