It is Thanksgiving. I am sitting here, coffee in hand, so very thankful that I have the privilege of walking the tide line so frequently. Ever since I was a little girl, the beach has been a place of peace and reflection for me, and now it is a source of imagination and creativity.
I wish you all, whether you are celebrating Thanksgiving or not, a day filled with thankfulness and joy.
Such a busy, complex week. A simple still life is restful for my spirit.
The rain and wind today should bring down the last leaves. Some, I am sure, will be whisked away into the ocean.
It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed the bleached coquina resting on the larger shell (a small oyster, I think). The shells and crab piece hide a tiny piece of yellow shell beneath, just visible through the hole.
I love this still life composition; the morning sun creating a pearly effect on the oyster makes it perfect.
“VB”, Very Beautiful. The tide live was so very beautiful this day!
The tide line is full of color, absolutely full!
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.
