Florida, as it turns out, has barrier islands, too, and that’s where I’m exploring this week. My first beach walk was fantastic – all kinds of downed trees and branches, the remnants of hurricanes that have hit this coast steadily over the years.
There are some seriously twisted shapes on this beach and I need to come back here with my good camera and play around.
This is my favorite one so far. It looks like a witch might look if a witch was a tree.
Stay tuned for more… The Coastal Images Tour has just started and all sorts of good things are bound to happen.
When it is over, I don’t want to wonder
if I have made of my life something particular, and real.
I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened,
or full of argument.
I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.

(one of my favorite poets, who passed away this week)
Love your photography! Inspiring.
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Tell me,
what is it you plan to do
with your one
wild and precious life?
Mary Oliver
I love that quotation and use it to check in with myself on a regular basis. Mary Oliver was an amazing person.
Mary Oliver buffeted by the winds of time, a raw (and real) tribute that mirrors her poems. Thank you.
There were no pictures????
There were pictures, not sure why you can’t see them 🙁
