It's been a pleasure to be able to get back to the beach - while I'm not a surfer or a swimmer (it would be fair to say that I struggle to stay afloat in the shower) I like to go there to be alone, gather my thoughts, listen to the waves. I've missed it.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is best on black.
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
This is spectacular on black -- and spectacular in any way. What a gorgeous view, and your capture of the sun rays, the reflections, the clouds -- all come together to offer us awe in nature. I, too, miss the ocean. I miss sitting there alone when I needed to sort out the world. I especially remember that following the death of my father (I was 16), I sat on the seawall one day, realizing my life as I knew it was over. We left the small island I had grown up on and moved to Tokyo. What memories you've brought about by allowing me to share this view of yours.
Looks like such a glorious spot. I really miss the sea.
Over here, when they mooted making it OK to travel within a 100km radius, people suggested making it 113km so everyone could get to the coast. :)
What a view Graeme, and to be there isolated and socially distanced by choice, to contemplate, think and relax must be very calming and mindful. This rays are just wonderful! Wish I was there (though you probably don't!!)
