Can there be a much better way to start the working week than by heading out with my camera to the coast to take a few photos? If there is, drop me a line, as I would love to know.
The sea has always fascinated me. There is something in the sheer uncontrolable nature of the oceans that draws me to the coast whenever I get the chance. At a time when man has essentially become his own God, the sea is a reminder that there are powers greater than us at work on this tiny planet, and they are not necessarily spiritual. Nature simply tolerates us, and the sea is proof of this. We cannot control it, we cannot fight it and we most certainly cannot ignore it. I hope a few of the shots I got today convey this. I’ll be adding them to a new set on my Flickr entitled simply The Coast, and the first three are up there now.
