Back Beach by graemestevens

Back Beach

I went to the beach late yesterday in the hope of finding some inspiration. All I can say is brace yourselves, here come the beach shots again...and somewhat disturbingly, some of them are in glorious technicolour. Help me.
For a change of pace, this one is definitely better on black.

My other shot for today can be found here:

You may well regret clicking on that link.
This is art, Graeme! (You know, nobody can help you if you don't try to help yourself first.) ;)

@juliedduncan Thanks very much - I'm always trying to help myself, usually to the wine...
August 15th, 2015  
Stunning. Calming. Beautiful.
August 15th, 2015  
@newbank Thank you so much, the disturbing thing is that there were other "people" on my beach. I'm still in a state of outrage.
August 15th, 2015  
Very nice - love the composition and hint of colour.
August 15th, 2015

August 15th, 2015  
Fabulous capture...Fav
August 15th, 2015  
Magical - fav!
August 15th, 2015  
Don't worry Graeme, even though this is a beach shot, in color no less, I think that heavy hanging sky does give it enough sense of foreboding to not depart entirely from your style.
August 15th, 2015  
Love the dramatic cloudscape :)
August 15th, 2015  
You know how to make the clouds look so close and the sky to be reflected in the wet sand! The evening must be the best time! fav
August 15th, 2015  
your dirty legs make the shot a classic...
August 15th, 2015  
Amazing! I love this, the dramatic clouds, peaceful water and reflections. FAV!
August 15th, 2015

August 16th, 2015  
This looks like a scene from a nature film, filmed in the Antartic. Excellent.
August 16th, 2015  
Is someone reporting Graeme's abduction by aliens??!! Colour?? Next @Northy will be posting in colour again, by choice! My world is upside down folks....
