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.

    Looks as though you found some great wildlife without needing to go to the zoo Eddie!

    That butterfly reminds me of our Red Admirals over here! Very similar!

      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)

    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...
