FORF #7

I've been getting beach withdrawal so today ventured down to my favourite spot. I haven't been there since November when my car was broken into and there had been a spate of thefts from vehicles. Not much money was stolen, it was just inconvenient with a lot of smashed glass. Apparently the thieves have been caught - two 13 year olds ...

Another for the Flash of Red theme, with the emphasis on textures. Taken with an infrared camera.

I really like your take on texture here. Great to have a landscape with all that texture from the incoming (or may be it is receding) wave. And the light is wonderful. Glad you were brave enough to put the past events behind you and venture out.

So exceptional and inviting! I love this! The sheen on the waves is just WOW! So glad that those kids were caught and hopefully they've learned a lesson and not continue on a track of mischief and crime. Your IR's are magnificent! FAV!!!!!!

You point out another advantage to my "from the Car" mode of photography. Lovely beach shot. Looks like a beautiful sunny day for good measure.

Fab shot, love the way you've caught the light on the incoming water. Bummer about the theft problem though, it would put you off going there.

Amazed that they caught them, but sorry for the inconvenience and shock of the loss when it happened. Beautiful shot - a great reward for returning to the spot.

I can really feel this about to such back out! What a splendid shot! Two 13 year olds!! Makes you wonder about their futures - and how annoying for the people that enjoy this beach. I'm so pleased that you feel able to return and take images like this. :)
