I LOVE THE BEACH...


I love this walkway to the beach. Even on a cold wintery gray day... you can't help but smile as you follow the path... which leads you to the softest sand (however your cozy socks, in your comfy shoes can not feel the sand)... but, you still feel the beach. The sound of the waves, the smell of the ocean air, the wonder of the beach. Oh yes, even on the wintery of winterest days, I do love the beach!




At Long Beach there is a section where the ocean trickles off into these little ponds... where the sea grass and shallow waters mix, and little path like walking trails all combine together. I love the look of the mix of it all...








The Bridge that leads to nowhere...

They can close down the bridge that connects Long Beach to Pebble Beach, but you can't stop me from going to the beach! I enjoyed capturing some closed for the winter kinda pics...






Closed down, boarded up and weather worn...



Beached traps...




FOR RENT - one cuddly teddy and beachside house with reflected ocean view....

What a wonderful story sequence (I especially love the bear waving 'hi'). Although the pictures look warm and inviting, I doubt a quick dip in the ocean would result in anything less than full-body-numbness.... :)

Dual lighthouses? I have a huge fascination with lighthouses (pictures of them adorn many a wall in our house).

Oh, how I'd love to come visit and capture these in prime light like you have here.

You got them at just the right color which is impressive for sunset on the East Coast.... good job.
