Going for a paddle

A typically English seaside activity.

[Ian Fisher]

A nice seaside shot! - which seaside is it?

[elkehochban]

Fab shot! Love to see families enjoying their time together.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

@if1 Thank you, Ian. Strictly speaking, I guess, not seaside because it's Southend.

@dulciknit

Looks like seaside - it'll do fine for me!

[Janet]

The weather is far from typical though! How nice to be able to paddle in September. A lovely shot - I like the way it looks as if they have all the time and space in the world.

[Jennifer C]

oh this looks lovely and warm! A bit different to the sea around here! Beautiful image Alison!

[Carole Imes]

Good for the people theme. I'm loving your beach shots, Alison! This is so lovely.

[Milanie]

Another nice calm day - lovely picture - like the expanse of it all.

[Amy McLaughlin]

Excellent choice for the people theme. I love the way that the two sets of people draw one's eye into the picture and then direct it to the horizon.

[Ulpi]

Great shot! Perfect for the theme!

and the weather looks just right for it...
Great shot Alison.

[Robin]

Love this shot, it's so English and such a pretty, too. As @mclaugae and @ulpiphotos say, you should tag it for the theme!

[Jean Tookey]

A lovely shot. I would never have guessed Southend. It would look good as a print on the wall. Fav !

Wonderful the way they stand out against the landscape (seascape)

[Netkonnexion]

Fun!

[Celia Leaberry Gould]

This is lovely - really sweet and poignant. Fav'd.

[Cindy Hagan]

Fabulous processing!

[Arthur Loosley]

Nice shot, Alison. "Saffend" as many Lunnoners call it, was always a favourite spot in my childhood, and I still return occasionally for a walk on the world's longest pier - and return to land by train! This picture amused me because of the three figures about to enter the water and two already in it, but I can't qute see the single person who headed the procession so I assume he or she ducked!

Thank you for all your lovely coments in my album!

[Taephy]

A very nice shot...
