Yeah that swirl is unsettling

I think that alpine town looked like a bullseye to draw your eyes to the house of ill repute.
Moving on...
How much does 500 ft of dock rent for?

I especially liked the the trees tied in knots.

Those are cool. The hand sculpture is evocative. I also come away wondering why we don't tax the rich effectively.

That mega yacht is in Antibes.
I just went to Google Earth and a adjusted the view size so that a AAA battery from my desk drawer pretty closely matched the size and width of the yacht on the screen, and I think it's close to impossible for it to get out of its berth without moving some pretty big docks out of the way. It's too big to easily make the turns, even with tug boats helping it. Kind of like parking a car in the dining room, and trying to get it out of the house through the living room.
It looks nice docked there though.

Looks like a completely different port. Different country even.

But it shows the side thrusting that helps getting out of the living room.

The hand sculpture I think is in a public park.
Since the bigass yacht is pretty new, it may have thrusters or props on a turret that can be pointed.

It likely does, and they clearly got it there, so they must be able to get it back out, but it's extremely tight.
