ZENsation

What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter - a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue

Great shot. Love the title and quote.

[Yao RL]

Love the New word and great composition and lighting.

[Kathie]

To achieve that it must include water. Great composition

[Osia Strasner]

Great new word, wonderful shot, love the upturned toes! :-))

[Karen Smale]

Love this! It is pulling me in two directions: the wonderful soothing sensation of sand and water, and the almost-falling-backward sensation that your feet (especially the upturned toes) give me. Fav!

[Sue Wilde]

Ah! Zensational

[Nancy]

Great capture, there really is nothing like letting the surf run out from under your feet.

[Frank Hymus]

Hope it was a bit warmer for you than for us here in new Jersey today. it didn't make it beyond 65. Fall is here I think. Probably in for a long hard winter. Again. Anyway, cool shot.

[Hope D Jennings]

@frankhymus I have a horrible feeling you are right,Frank!This is gorgeous,Joey!

[Call me Joe]

@frankhymus we're quiet lucky here so far- we still have hot gorgeous days but cold nights are starting to settle in:)

[Kerri Michaels]

love!! fav

[HEW]

fab

[Debbie]

well I get all that from a good walk on the beach -= great shot

[Lisa Villella]

I love the feeling of the sand being sweep out from under your feet with the tide! Great shot!

[Rosie Kerr]

Such a relaxing shot... love the wiggling tootsies, the light, the diagonal composition.

[Ukandie!]

The dreams of many of us. This shot makes me realize how much I need a vacation somewhere secluded and warm. fav

[Gena Pegg]

Super POV and perspective. Love this image.

[Chris Stapleton]

Wonderful stuff

[Cindy]

Love the shot and the quote, they are great accompaniment to each other.

[Sally Ings]

Very cool perspective

[vstap]

Funny, I've never thought of Matisse as a particularly balanced or soothing artist, it's an interesting quote. Of course, everyone has their own way of looking at things. The photo shows someone experiencing the flow of waves, tho, & that is very zen!

[Elizabeth]

WOW! I did almost the exact same shot (of my feet) at the beach tonight but decided not to post it. Then I saw this and LOL! (but my toes are pink!)

[Jan Rose]

Great quote for your photo.

[Helen K]

Love the quote ... are the (yours?) toes curling 'cos the water's cold? Brrrr!

[trishaclancy]

I could do with a bit of that right now

[kali]

woah, thats a great feet photo, that feels so good

[Alexandra DG]

just perfect....

[Rachel]

A lovely shot, one that makes me want to do the same!

[gloria jones]

Cool idea for great shot, light...Fav

[Francoise]

hmmm. one can feel the relaxed feet. I love the concept of a nice relaxing armchair for my mind ... it's been working overtime.

[Paula W]

Love your selfies Joey!

[Jocasta]

Great quote - and equally great selfie - your feet?

[Call me Joe]
