Where's the beach? by judithg

Where's the beach?

Well it looks like a peaceful walk along the River Cam at Waterbeach but with my friend's 8 month old labrador and Monty haring around like demented idiots we had to pay attention and make sure we didn't get knocked flying. Sleepy dog now though :0) Unfortunately there isn't actually a beach at Waterbeach...

it's beautiful, lovely lovely place to wander - even if it's not peaceful with two dogs!!

Blue skies and reflections. A beach WOULD be fab, but.... :)
March 21st, 2012  
Maybe you should give it a new name! Love how still it looks with the reflections :)
March 21st, 2012  
very serene

Beach or no beach it's very beautiful xx

Such a beautiful non-beach! Great reflections in the water - looks so peaceful!

...get on to the council with the trades descriptions act, just not fair.
Always great when the hound flops.
Nice picky judith

Gorgeous!!

The colors, lighting, reflections are fabulous. Glad Monty didn't pull you in

@jgpittenger Well that would have made proper waves!! I've booked to have my shoulder injected - can't get me in until April though...
March 21st, 2012  
Sounds like your four-legged friends stole the tranquility! But it is certainly a beautiful spot!
March 21st, 2012  
I'm glad they didn't jump in and spoil this gorgeous reflection!
March 21st, 2012  
Wonderful blotches of color... Half is golden and the other is green. Great reflections!

Beautiful scene!

Lovely photo. I know exactly what you mean about non-restful walks with dogs. One of ours has a new hobby of running off, so you have to be on the look out for her disappearing all the time.
March 21st, 2012  
I'm surprised the Labrador didn't jump in! They are notorious for taking no notice when there is water around!
March 21st, 2012  
Them's quite little waves... lovely scene though. Wish I'd been there today instead of inside.
March 21st, 2012  
A lovely tranquil scene Judith, I'd love to see Monty dashing into the water spoiling the tranquillity :) ...I just did a quick look through your back catalogue from when I was away, to see how often Monty appears...love the Monty in the snow pic

@fueast It's not all about size...
March 21st, 2012  
@judithg tell that to a surfer!
March 21st, 2012  
@phil_howcroft Is that the lost hoop one? That was funny! And what about that one where he's a teeny tiny speck because he's gone on a deer chase - I wasn't so impressed with him then!!
March 21st, 2012  
@fueast Our Northumbrian surfing experience wasn't far off this!
March 21st, 2012  
Looks like a gorgeous setting!!
March 21st, 2012  
@judithg it was him leaping up in the air confused by the snow / hoop combo .....talking of leaping in the air ....a few weeks ago something spooked Ruby as I was picking up her 'parcel'....she somehow managed to leap backwards and slipped her 'dogs trust harness' ...i still cannot believe how she did it..I was left with a harness a 'parcel bag' as she legged it across a mini roundabout,, across the road and dashed up the hill ...I was anxious and out of puff as I ran after her as she raced out of sight ....amazingly...she ran home and got the most serious 'telling off' from my wife ....dogs don't you just love them !
March 21st, 2012  
@phil_howcroft Oh blimey!! Well at least when Monty went on his mile and a half run in the snow (I'm not exaggerating) there were no roads near. I was beginning to wonder if he'd ever think abut coming home though. Glad to hear Ruby got home safely - did you get told off as well?!
March 21st, 2012  
@judithg I'm always getting told off Judith....but not this time !!
March 21st, 2012  
bello scatto, assomiglia molto al fiume della mia città in italia
March 21st, 2012  
lovely spot. love the reflection!
March 21st, 2012  
gorgeous light and reflections - very minimalistic waves! and I'm amazed you didn't have huge waves from a lab jumping in
March 21st, 2012  
@tobi Mille Grazie!
March 21st, 2012  
Beautiful! Who would want a beach??
March 21st, 2012  
Beautiful scene and lovely countryside colours.
March 21st, 2012  
Odd where places get their names from! Just having a laugh about yours & Phils adventures with your dogs, thank goodness Tui is a bit older & not running off too much, L would be hopeless running after her ! Lovely spot for a walk & all looks quiet on this picture !!
March 21st, 2012  
Looks lovely and peaceful (even if it wasn't with Monty around!) lovely colours =)
March 21st, 2012  
@cookie123 Great to hear from you!!
March 21st, 2012  
Shame about the beach but what fabulous reflections you get instead :-)
March 21st, 2012  
Does look peaceful and lovely reflections.
March 21st, 2012  
Wow you are good!!!
March 22nd, 2012  
Judith...this is such a fab landscape!
March 22nd, 2012  
That looks like a gorgeous day! :-D
March 22nd, 2012

March 22nd, 2012

March 22nd, 2012  
Are there any beaches in Engerland. Very pretty
March 22nd, 2012  
How beautiful, love the reflections!
March 22nd, 2012  
@peterdegraaff Yes indeed - we're an island!! But not here 100 miles inland!!
March 22nd, 2012  
Sounds like good old Monty still keeps you busy. Hope your shoulder is up to the challenge :)!
March 23rd, 2012  
Lovely clear reflections.
