Stop and Smell the Ocean.

There is nothing like a walk along the beach to make you thankful to be alive.

Last night was a beautiful evening and David and I had a lovely stroll on our local beach.

The tide was quite high but we didn't see any dolphins.

Certainly is great to take time to 'smell the roses' or in this case the salt air... like how th waves are coming in on an angle... lovely light

[Valerie Chesney]

Delightful Babs, love those waves washing in!! So pleased you & David could "smell" the sea air together, wonderful for clearing the head. Is that David with his camera bag? Warm wishes to you both!! :) :)

@pcoulson Not Shoal Bay Peter. It's the beach between the Anchorage Marina and Bagnalls Beach at Corlette.

Makes you want to jump in. Is it cold? Here the temperature of the sea is wonderful and you can jump in and stay in for hours. what a gorgeous view!

Totally agree Babs. I love the sound of rolling waves. It's so calming 😉

My sentiments exactly, Babs and it works no matter what the weather brings :)

i like the way the waves are just slipping in at an oblique angle and the way David is standing, taking in the good fresh air.. Beautiful light Babs and you took good advantage of it too..

Such a perfect place for an evening stroll. Don't know about you, but I always find the sound of the waves so relaxing and, as you say, you can smell the water.

Love that shaft of light which brings attention to David's profile and how he is enjoying taking in the scene. It is a beautiful photograph Babs. Glad he is out and about.

It's so beautiful- I think there are many places where one can "stop and smell the..." but if I had my choice, I'd be walking on a beach too!
