I finally decided to take myself to the beach. The whole 10 min. drive almost killed me... :rolleyes

I wanted to take some pics of sunset, but i'm not really good at landscaping, oh well. Just wanted to share.


Just some shots of locals/turists hanging out on the beach

Every night they have drum circle going on, people doing some crazy stuff, mostly young. Dancing and smoking who knows what. That's why cops are always there...

    Thank you Serrator!! I personally don't care for the beach as much, i guess living here for 15 years will do it. I would move to the mountains in a heartbeat!!

    Yeah I love the mountains as well. I grew up near Santa Cruz up in the coastal redwood range but only minutes from the beach...now I am land-locked in the middle of Missouri! We humans are never satisfied I guess.:D

    Hi, Nice series. I agree with Skippy the sunset pic is a really nice landscape. We only have to watch out for goose droppings on our beach, who cleans up after the horses? :D

    Very nice shots, Marina. I particularly like the sunset shots. clap.gif
    I know what you mean about the sand. Here in Pensacola the beach is publicized as "the whitest sand in the world" . To me is the "stickiest sand in the world." :D

    Neat series Marina, the sunset shots are cool, but I like the shots where you flashed the foreground - nice experiment and well exposed thumb.gif
