a day at the beach



ciao, gentle readers...
back from my journey to Florida,
and as I write this...
large snow flakes gather outside my window...






but the memory of
warm days linger ....

of beautiful beaches...

with sugar fine sand...




wide open spaces...







littered with shells....







and water colored by light....







Siesta Key is so lovely...








we were blessed with
perfect weather...
a romantic
trip...







as I get back to the studio
I will be sharing more photos with you...
and be out to visit you...

enjoy the beach...



C4N!

  8. That's some contrast yet you find the beauty in each. " Beauty in each" shortens to beach doesn't it?

  9. Your beach and sun photos help make up for the cold, snow swept day I am experiencing here. You take such lovely photos and your narrative is not just romantic, but also poetic. You could write a travel journal that would make anyone imagine the beauty of the visit, even if the place you were describing was a 1/2 star hotel (grin).

  11. No doubt it was a warm and wonderful trip. Such a change in weather. Hard to believe your neck of the woods is finally getting some snow. It's been such a mild winter there. Have a great day! Tammy
