calm

The beach today was just perfect,
lapping softly to the edge, then a few small rolling waves,
then calm again. Another couple of hundred shots, got some
really good ones, my finger was in tune. & it was quiet.

Like Cathy's drawing of rooks & more
(got dive bombed again by a magpie)

Anie, that's a lovely photograph. I can just feel it! The warmth - the bright light - the salt tang in the air - the tingle on the toes from the water and the wet sand - the profound sense of peace when the always restive ocean is stilled to a spaced set of waves gently drifting to shore. Thank you for evoking a beachy moment when I am a fair way from a beach...ray

Yes, Ray, it all comes together on those days (surfers have to go elsewhere), & now, next day, it's windy & there are hordes.
