Default Beach Smiley!

I was rummaging through my shots with some textures in it to share on Paul and Patrick’s thread and I found these..taken with my old P&S from my last visit to the beach..it was cloudy and high tide at that time so I just had a good walk instead.. found some interesting things scattered along the shore..

My favorite subject – leaf!

Jennie, I'll come for a walk on the beach with you any time! I can smell the seaweed in the last one -- some folks I know don't like that smell, but to me it is just so beachy and I love it. The textures are wonderful throughout, and I love the composition and sharp focus of the first one. Wonderful!

Interesting shots, Jennie!
It's not easy to pull out something good from common objects, but your composition and colors did it.

“Every time we walk along a beach some ancient urge disturbs us so that we find ourselves shedding shoes and garments or scavenging among seaweed and whitened timbers like the homesick refugees of a long war.”
Loren Eiseley
..and then we photograph what we found .

The beach is just like a sunset, never get tired of seeing it and no two are ever the same, nice job Jennie
