GLITTERING SEA AT WESTON SUPER MARE

I took this shot a couple of years ago during a visit to Brean Down near Weston Super Mare

I just loved the shimmering light of the waves


Nearby I caught a dragonfly basking in the sun


. . . . and a little inland a Damselfly hiding amongst the camouflage


. . . . and when we got home a butterfly greeted us.



Hopefully my next post will be a recent memorable trip to Bristol Zoo.

    1. Nothing like the water to soothe your soul, eh? - now that is very romantic and poetic. I thought your were not into poetry - bet you could write a beauty sitting it front of that sea all afternoon with its shimmering and dancing kaleidoscope as it shatters into a billion pieces to the echo of everlasting waves to stir our very souls. There - I always knew you could do it . . . . lol

      Glad you enjoyed the view . . . . cheers :o)

  12. All pictures are wonderful. But the silvery sea has a quality, that seems to be made of dreams. I had to think of one of my favourite poems. "It was many and many a year ago. In my kingdom by the sea..." E.A.Poe, Annabel Lee. I always loved Poe...
