I don’t know if a video is cheating in the Weekly Photo Challenge, but I couldn’t contain myself. It’s water!
I’ve said before that the ocean was my playground when I was a child. It still is a place of wonder and joy for me. I love to sit close to the shore so that the waves barely cover my feet when they come, throw my head back and just be for a while. Those moments melt all the stress away and the ocean breeze infuses me with enough strength that after that I can tackle the day with a song in my lips. (This week, this has been one of them; You & Me by Diamond Rings.)
Living in a caribbean island I couldn’t possibly take this challenge any way other than by sharing a bit of our wet sand and hoping you enjoy dipping your virtual feet in it!
And just in case the video is cheating, I can make it up by sharing a picture too.
Have a great week.
great photo and video and I suddenly remembered my “ocean” photo challenge. I had a slow motion video of waves along with a photo.

Okay, I’m gonna give you a challenge on this one. I want you to take a still photograph of the water, but communicate the idea of movement within the picture. Think long exposures and ND filters.
Aaaaand: Go!
