Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Walking on Dromana beach, Mornington Peninsula is a popular past-time, almost any season.
Spring weather was just emerging in 2008.
But this could easily be an Autumn shot right now too!

Small kiss of waves
Gentle sand carresses feet
Walking in heaven

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I love walking on the beach... way more, actually, than swimming in the sea beside it -- so feel I can relate very much to that picture! ;D
