Cheri Lucas Rowlands posted a great theme this week on the Daily Post. I have decided to interpret it with my favorite moving object.. no not myself…..
“Because there’s nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it’s sent away.”
While in Vietnam I decided to take a rest stop and catch my breath in Danang. I was super exhausted from the hiking, biking and canoeing marathon and just wanted to take a couple of days and rest at the ocean. I woke up one morning and decided to take some photos of the sun coming up..and later the sun going down. I stood in one place and just kept on shooting photos of the always moving waves. From the same exact spot every single picture was so different and so beautiful. I hope you enjoy.
“The sea is emotion incarnate. It loves, hates, and weeps. It defies all attempts to capture it with words and rejects all shackles. No matter what you say about it, there is always that which you can’t.”
― Christopher Paolini, Eragon
How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is quite clearly Ocean.
Here are some other photos of my beach time.

I really like your interpretation of the challenge where you stand still and the ocean moves. The pictures capture the sense of movement beautifully.
Thank you. It was pretty amazing.
lovely photos
My retirement place should be by the ocean.. or the mountains.. the best would be by both.
Both would be amazing but hard to do. I’m settling for the sea.
Good Plan

«And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually»
I like that.. Should have been my title.
It’s from the Jimi Hendrix song «castles made of sand».
Appreciate the reference.. will look it up..
