So, let's pretend that there's a moon.
I'd never heard that particular Fats Waller song; thanks so much for sharing it! The beauty of your beach never fails to enthrall me... so lovely.
ReplyDeleteJacquelineand....
DeleteI find this beach more beautiful than I thought I would (the Costa del Sol doesn't have a great reputation). I love listening to Fats Waller.
Mitchell,it is definitely beginning of the season.
ReplyDeleteGosia:
DeleteIf the weather would stay like this all summer, it would be perfect!
Amazing differences take place almost daily in an ocean and interesting how each extreme attracts different groups of people.......the rougher the better for surfers and 'dopey types!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Mitchell and good to see SG in the water!!
Jim:
DeleteThis morning the sea was many shades of gray. It was magical. But I refused to get out of bed to take pictures.
The sea has many moods. Best to catch her when she's playing nice.
ReplyDeleteStephen:
DeleteThe waves were coming in diagonally earlier today. Never a dull moment.
That beach/sea really is marvelous. Just beautiful! What have the temps been lately? So glad that San Geraldo has been enjoying it, too!
ReplyDeleteJudy:
DeleteHigh 70sF has been the norm lately. Glorious weather. (Well except for San Geraldo's variable cyclonic winds and this morning's downpour... which I STILL find glorious).
I don't think I would ever be bored looking at the ever-changing moods of the sea.
ReplyDeleteSpo:
DeleteMost days, I completely zone out at some point. Dudo and Moose are the same way. It must be quite a sight when the three of us are lined up at a window or on the terrace.
That must have taken some precise planning or a GPS to get those photos from the exact angle and point of view. Excellent photography. (I'm not going to say how much I envy your being by the ocean.)
ReplyDeleteFrank:
DeleteI had my smart phone with me. So, I brought up the previous post to see what I wanted to compare. (Given that, you'd think I would have done better!) For me, nothing could be better than this view and the sound of the sea.
For some reason I've got Dinah Washington singing 'What A Difference A Day Makes' in my head!
ReplyDeleteI'm also thinking Tontin has slipped through the Strait of Gibraltar by now.
Bob:
DeleteShe's been singing in my head, too. But I remembered that I used that video (and title) in a blog post right after we got the cats. (http://mitchellismoving.blogspot.com.es/2012/05/what-difference-day-makes.html) Of course, no one else would have cared (or even noticed) if I had used it again!
The sea is so fascinating, so changing. I would never tire of looking at it if I lived there.
ReplyDeleteKristi:
DeleteYou're so right... and I don't!
Beeyoootiful ocean!
ReplyDeleteKnatolee:
DeleteMy favorite sight ... and sound. It's glorious today!
Hi, Mitchell.
ReplyDeleteI'm here thanks to the lovely Jacqueline.
I live nowhere near the beach now, so thank you for bringing it to me. I missed it. I'm a native Californian whose familiar with several of the places you've called home: Marina Del Rey, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, San Diego...
Cheers!
Robyn:
DeleteThanks so much for visiting. I think I've got a bit of a crush on Jacqueline (and the Great Scot... and the Kidling). I see you're now in Chico. So near to and yet so far from the beach. I look forward to reading your blog!
