I’ve not much to work with on this blog – my camera was playing up and the conditions were so bl**dy perfect again!! Not that we mind ….. 😀
A ‘normal’ shot of the beach…
Zoom in and it becomes a romantic scene…with the seagull on the right…
Flat flat flat!
But there was a chilly NW wind …
A new puppy in town – Elvis!!! 🙂
Another ‘ordinary’ photo…
Zoom in ….and nothing…Sorry folks I thought there was something interesting… 😀
Normal photo….
Zoom in and… Izzy treading on a sea urchine OR greeting her buddy Jane??
A strange footprint was seen on the sand this morning! Not sure …it could be a lost eskimo OR Jalna’s special foot-brace thing! Welcome back Jalna after 6 weeks off swimming! She was seen smiling from ear to ear afterwards!!
Derek Dreyer was congratulated at Shelly for his reaching 500km on the Pacific Challenge – his speech went on for so long the swimmers gave up waiting for the Let’s Go! 😉
I saw this fish and I have forgotten it’s name! Nick??
Some more fish…
So clear!!
Did someone leave behind their goggles (nose still attached!) and cap this morning?!?!?! men’s changing rooms… See John Kelly..(or Ian Forster)
That’s all folks! Have a lovely day!!
