Weather wise we had a bit of everything yesterday, BC style. Dark stormy skies, rain, snow, high winds, and finally sunshine. It was when the sun broke through the masses of dark grey cotton candy clouds that I headed off to the beach.
There were some of the regulars hanging around.
The winds were so high, they could knock you over, and if the waves felt like they were getting a little to close. It was because they were!
There was a brisk wind, the sun shone, the whitecaps danced a watery ballet, it was glorious!
I just wanted all you hardier folks to know that people from BC don't always complain about the weather. At least not all the time.
Love it! I used to live on the coast of Maine, so it would be cold in the winters! But I could walk right down our street and climb on the rocky shore with the waves crashing all around me. Winter or summer, I loved that. I think that's what I miss most in my life--being near the ocean. Jan
ReplyDeleteLovely photos - and weather!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy a good storm on a beach - from a safe distance, that is!
Thank you for sharing these extraordinary pics this morning. I can almost smell the air and feel the breeze on my face!
ReplyDeletePS Your photography is wonderful! Love that first pic...and the second! ... and the one with the waves with the sun...
ReplyDeleteGreat shots but it looks cold. Maybe just because I'm cold over here:)
ReplyDeleteMy kinda' day, Jen! I grew up on the Great Lakes ... nearness to water feeds my soul.
ReplyDeleteThose photos of the seagulls are absolutely fabulous!! I'm loving your blogging more and more. You've really found your voice and coupled with your images, it's a powerful combination! Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work. It is so fun to "visit" BC again through your photos.
ReplyDeleteOh you are making me want to go to the beach, if not for anything than to take photos! Love the seagulls just hanging out! LOL, we on the West Coast just LOVE to complain about the weather, well except those in Southern CA...they have no right to complain!!! Kim
ReplyDeleteA conversation isn't complete in the mid-west if you don't talk about the weather! Good, bad or otherwise. As usual - lovely pictures.
ReplyDeleteWell it is water and unfrozen..looks good to me! Those Gulls look like they could use little sweaters! :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful photography...it's like I'm standing right there!!! Thanks so much for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteLucky you Jen! I would never complain about the weather if I had access to the beach! I have always loved the sun and the storms there!! Always peaceful for me....
