This setting has such a powerful, dramatic mood to it and could easily be a painting on a wall. I like the rush of water and the windswept grasses and of course the sandcastles popping up on the beach. Beautiful treatment Patti. #9586755Patti Coblentz August 06, 2011

Gorgeous beach composition, Patti! Very creative and artistic - definitely has your stamp all over it! Love your treatment to give this painterly effect. Everything is just perfect - the windswept grasses, the glorious ocean waves and those very crisp castles in the sand! #9589095Patti Coblentz August 08, 2011
