Mackerel Sky

Another photo for the FoR challenge.

This is the closest beach to our house and as you can see it is always very quiet.

We live outside the tourist areas so not many people know about it. It is about 300 metres from our home.

The boat on the beach has been abandoned here for a long time and I have taken photos of it before on my project.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Yes the rain did arrive the next day but it is a beautiful day again today, lots of sunshine
