The tide line is full of color, absolutely full!

One Green Bubble
It is amazing how frustrated one can become when the network goes down or becomes flaky. Makes me even happier to post a peaceful photograph today.
‘D’ is for ‘Dazzling’
The color of the interior of this crab shell is completely natural, untouched. It mirrored the brilliant morning sun. Clearly the creature was hiding its best asset.
Truly a Leafy Sea Dragon
More shadow-play fun!
Sail On
“The sea is so big, and my ship is so small.”
Those of you who have been here before know that I do not arrange any objects in these photographs. The still lifes are created by the wash of the tide, the wind, and also the light, as is the case in this photograph. Morning light here on the eastern US coast often creates wonderful and surprising shadows like this one.
Sail on.
A Specter of Summer Past
Children are back in school, the beaches are quiet, Boardwalk rides up and down the coast are closed for the season.
Memories remain, like specters.

coquina JINGLE crab
The accent is on the jingle shell, as it should be.
Singular Sensation [Crescent]
Single pebble, single cluster of bubbles, single crescent – like a moon.

A Study in Translucency
As you may know, I love jingle shells. Their simplicity and fragility belies their origin in the tumbling, violent ocean. That any of them make it to the tide line is a point of amazement. This particular shell had just arrived with the last wave, hence the small bubbles within. The morning light spotlighted this tiny shell’s translucency, shining through to the sand beneath. The shell’s placement beside the opaque shell fragment makes this quality even more stunning.
