Throwback Thursdays...A Favorite Place

Throwback Thursdays...A Favorite Place

 

When we lived in Delray Beach, I never tired of taking photos of the beach...the palm trees, ocean, and beach activity.  

 

 

Once when we had a friend visiting, they asked why I continued to take pictures of the beach. She said, “Don’t you already have enough?”

 

“How many pictures of the beach can you take??

 

She may be right...if I looked at the beach through her eyes. 

 

And perhaps for some, the beach is just the same old sand and water. 

 

But I found something new and interesting every morning that I was there...the sun hitting the palm trees at a special angle, a washed-up buoy from a boat, The Weather Channel covering a hurricane.

Delray Beach is such a cool little spot. I just love that area along the ocean. Very cool.

Kathy I totally understand!  I must have a gazillion photos of the mountain preserve where I hiked for well over 30 years.  I just kept taking them as I always found something of interest, or just the right sunlight, a new little critter.....all fun.  Keep on taking photos of your preserve!!

Michael Jacobs you have to find what works for you...at least that's what I do. 

Nina Hollander, Broker a good friend back in FL and I were the only ones who would take pics at our gatherings. So we made a point to take a photo of each other because otherwise neither of us would be in any of the photos.

Love the quote and we are of the same exact mindset, Kathy. I do that with the lake and sunsets...you can never have too many pictures of God's beautiful artwork

Kathy that picture almost has kind of a haunting feeling to it.  Very different.

Hi Kathy Streib - You will never tire of Delray Beach.  Anytime I was at the beach I took a lot of images.  We would go to Maui every year and I would come home with a couple of hundred images each time. I love the beach.  Thanks for the memories as Bob Hope used to say!

One, (at least for me), never gets tired of seeing photos of the sand and sea.

Hi Kathy:

I so agree with you. Pictures of the beach and sunsets are some of my favorites and I never tire of looking at the beach or the sun setting, or snapping a few photos. Each one is different!
