Default A moment in Time.

Thought that was a good name for this picture, captured just as the wave arrives.


At Hervey Bay-1


This would have been a good photo if only it was in focus.


At Hervey Bay-3


and this one, check out the bird middle right. " I am just so beautiful"


At Hervey Bay-2

Thanks for looking

Aww, look at all the sea shells in the first shot ! The harbor is beautiful , I love the third shot, the bird looks as if he is admiring his reflection, doesn't he ? Nice set, looking forward to seeing more.

Michelle, these are great captures. Great detail in the first one and nice timing too. Lovely scenery in the second one and the colours are excellent, and lol at the seagull admiring him/herself in the water and it's great photograph too. As usual Michelle. Great work.

Dave.

These are gorgeous. That is a lot of sea shells, my two girls would be in heaven! Really a gorgeous shot. I love the harbor, I always love seeing all the boats lined up awaiting their turn to go out to sea. The seagull is so funny. "Hey good looking, what are you doing later?"
Great collection. Makes me want to get to the beach!

Thanks Michelle, I rather liked the sea shells, there was just one little spot of sunshine on the beach because the sun was setting, I thought it looked rather nice. And yes, it is one of those beaches children love, shells everywhere, not very good ones but it never stops the children.

Your series is outstanding. There is little room for improvement but you have pointed that out before.
I was really amused by the narcissistic gull. If the original has enough resolution it may be worth your while to crop it as a standalone. Narcissus (or Narkissos), the beutiful gull will make a nice picture.

Here is a link for the painting by Caravaggio:
