My favorite beach photo:
Mr least favorite beach photo:
The first was taken in 2010. The second was taken in 1945. The first is of New Smyrna Beach in northeast Florida. The second is of Coney Island beach in New York. The first might be called “Atlantic Solitude.” The second might be called “Oh, the humanity.” In the first, the crowd has left for the day. In the second, the crowd has not yet arrived.
Hello, world! This blog began on September 28, 2007, and so far nobody has come looking for me
with tar and feathers.
On my honor, I will do my best not to bore you. All comments are welcome
as long as your discourse is civil and your language is not blue.
Happy reading, and come back often!
And whether my cup is half full or half empty, fill my cup, Lord.

You would like the beaches here in Oregon. It's too cold to swim, and boy does that ever cut down on the crowds. Not to mention that the surf is so violent and the sneaker waves so prevalent that those brave souls who do venture out are sometimes washed right off the beach and out to sea.
ReplyDeleteOh my! What on Earth was going on that people would want to squash in together like that? I am so not a squashed together kind of person! Your amazing pic confirms it absolutely.
ReplyDeleteWV is 'plase' which of course is only one letter away from 'please' which of course means "please never ask me to squash together with lots of people like that!"
Oh dear, imagine being somewhere in that crowd. What a lovely day at the beach that would be :-( And they've all spotted the one guy with the camera ;-)
ReplyDeleteI prefer beach one 2.

I hate it when people need to leave. Then it takes hours getting home.:)
