Healingstones said...: I like the line 'Quiet beauty in waiting'. Using the opening in the sea wall frames this picture beautifully and focuses us on the sea and there is an interesting contrast in the natural rocky outcrops and the orderly man-made steps and wall.

I'm going to try to take some photos today! I have lots of inspiration around me!; February 26, 2009 8:32 AM
