I'm having a 'stop the world, I want to get off' sort of day, so thought that this shot of the Blackpool shoreline was probably quite appropriate. All I need now is a warm sunny day, a deckchair, a good book, and a fast jet from here to there :)

I know the feeling, and the scenery :-) Nice one as if the clouds were lining up with the beach. Have a good weekend!

Make that a jet for two! Great composition. Your creative processing makes the image shine! So nice.

Martin and Michael: thanks.

Carlos: OK, you can come along too, but only if you promise to sit quietly :-)

I love the abstract feel your lighting enhancements impart to the sand; it seems to float.
Best of luck on that get-a-way you crave!
