And the world gets coloured

Here you can download a screensaver with the most exciting sunset views over my island. A compilation of more than 30 photos of the almost left day. A fantastic mix and absolutely free.

The screensaver can be downloaded from the Windows SkyDrive server, as self installing version (for OS up to WIN XP) or direcly as screensaver file (for WIN Vista and newer and MAC OS).

Here's the download link to the Windows SkyDrive server (will open a new window):

... or you can mark, copy and paste the following whole link in a new window:

Every version need two files:

• scrsaverFEXE.zip.001 + .002
• scrsaverFSCR.zip.001 + .002

On your pc should have been installed a program for extracting compressed files, like WINZIP, WINRAR or 7ZIP. I recommend 7ZIP for Windows users, it's freeware and you can download it from http://www.7zip.com/, or the program ZIPEG for MAC users. The download link you will find below on the same page.

These programs compile the file fractions automatically. After this click on the install file (.exe) or open with a right mouse click the context menu and look for the “install”entry (.scr).

Enjoy it!

Soon more...

If you like the screensaver and our blog, please tell it everyone!

Un saludo from the FUERTEVENTURABLOG-team

Rich Majorera Island

.
If there's mentioned Fuerteventura, mostly it is associated with xeric, beach holidays and windsurfing.

Once you explored this island more precisely?

On a lot of places along the isle is maintained alive the history of the past 600 years. Emblematic buildings from the last epochs are being restored and preserved, because these are the last silent attestors of the past time.

The mountain cuttings and barrancos are most fascinating, where the sea impede its enlargements. The coastal regions at the Barlovento (the West coast) are always in motion, creating endless and unique sceneries, are places to breathe deeply, while the long fine sand beaches at the Sotavento (the East coast) invite to relax, walking and playing.

Romantics will find the best moments just in the last minutes of the twilight, this moment, when the sun seems all in a dark red colour tone, when the eye sees the sand, the sea and the sky downright burning.

We caught this moments, places and unique scenes and published them in a book series. There are published so far three editions, subtitled in four languages – Spanish, English, German and Italian.

The books are to be sold by the printing press BUBOK in Barcelona, Spain and can be ordered easily on their website, www.bubok.com. The books are about 22,9 cm x 17,8 cm (9.02 in x 7.01 in) landscape, completely coloured and every book contains 52 images on 58 pages. Some pages can be previewed on the website of the print office. Your order will be delivered directly to domicile, all over the world.
