This is like a dream, Donna. One that no one would ever want to wake from. It reminds me of so many places in the world...My mind went to Lebanon in the 50's when there was so much beauty and peace. I am not sure why I thought of that first. Maybe an album cover of a record my parents had bought there? (Called "Evening In Beirut").

Outstanding.

Looks as if it has to be a sunset shot again, Donna -- but I can't settle on just one so I'm going to mark Serenity and Strength, too. I love the smooth slope of the water on the beach here and the cool tones and the sparkling line of the pier way out on the horizon. #8510214

Whenever I see beautiful sunsets on seascapes, I automatically think it's another one of yours, Donna. You did not disappoint me. You have a good eye and ability to capture the delicate colors and light. I love your composition and delicate details. #8518597
