The first, and the last.....

This is the first shot that I took at the beginning of our walk along Whitford Beach just as the sun was thinking of setting, and below, the last shot before heading up through the dunes back to the car  How the light changes in the space of less than an hour and what a perfect way to end a sizzling hot day! I heard a rumor, well actually I saw it on the link above, that there's a chance of rain on Sunday, halleluiah!! Is it really Friday already, well for us here in Australia anyway, I hope it's a good one for you, take care and stay safe.....

  1. Ah...looks so peaceful and relaxing. Great way to unwind at the end of the day. Maybe I should do that tonight. Love the footprints in the sand leading out of frame. By the way, nice new profile pic.

  4. It must have been a lovely walk even in the heat. I'd guess a little breeze off the water cooled things down a little bit.

    Re your comment about it being Friday already in Perth: Aha! See, I knew there was always a reason you were ahead of me!

  19. Well, spend yesterday three hours in rain and hail on the street - hot tea and lemon juice afterwards. A few trees dare to get ready for spring over here. End of month though said to have some snow ...
