This was an alternative canvas design I created for the same shoot as before. I think it's a lot more "fun" than the other one.

In ordinary non-COVID times, there is a gondola that goes from the ground to the pinnacle at Paradise Point, atop the heights east of St Thomas's main city. Not so now: with the cruise ships gone, the gondola is apparently no longer economically viable nor medically advisable. Paradise Point, however, has one of the elite eateries of the island, Prime, and COVID cannot obliterate the views. So we went, via the narrow and frightening switchback road up to the top of the peak, where we got a filling steak dinner -- and more importantly, a fine view of Charlotte-Amelie below us, clustered around the harbour. Of all the steep and winding roads we traversed in the Virgin Islands, that to Paradise Point was the most stomach-dropping. I can't describe the moments when we had to back up just to make a turn, and found open air under a wheel.
But we are all well, and this picture of Charlotte-Amelie by night and from above serves to prove it. Thank you, Paradise Point. You are the best of hosts. The old adage "ad astra per aspera" has rarely been more vividly illustrated.
The appetizers were fantastic: an old-school and particularly rich exemplar of Oysters Rockefeller and a shaved brussel salad we devoured rapaciously in whole. I sadly can't say as much for our pair of petit filets, which were badly overcooked (and misshapen) despite our mutual order of medium rare. But for all it is a steakhouse, I can't let the steaks stand athwart it in the face of such excellent service, appetizers, and view. I have to say I'd return next time I am on St Thomas, when hopefully the gondola will be running once more and I can avoid the nausea of the road trip up and down. But I might opt for the porterhouse next time.
