I can just feel the power of the water and smell the salty air. Gorgeous!

I'm happy you enjoyed them.

It's been a while since I took any and I was bummed because I couldn't remember how to set the camera for burst mode!

And I was hoping for surfers but the one I saw left before I could get any shots of his style.

Thanks for helping validate my efforts!

I had my feet in the water at a Cape Cod beach today; no big waves, but lots of sparkles.

I hear you about no big waves but lots of sparkles! That's how my beach was too.

There's still plenty to enjoy.

A few waves were good enough to catch!

I am now adding the hypnotic "fragrance" of the ocean waves, not to mention the soothing continuous sound of the waves to my old memories. Your beautiful photos have pushed these long forgotten years to the forefront.....I almost feel young again! I love the NC mountains but right now I am really missing the Pacific Ocean....that old saying, "You don't know what you've got til it's gone" is running through this old head ❤️.
