A taste of summer

The rain stopped. The sun came out. It was even warm! We went to Crescent Beach while it lasted.

A glorious summery day!

At high tide, the beach is a mere strip between warm yellows and cool, cool blue.

Runner and train at the Point

Blinding sunlight gives black shadows, starry specks

Splashed stones in the sunshine

Yellow, orange, blue

A tangled mess of wild roses enlivened by so-yellow leaves and red rose hips

Detail of a wind-polished stump

Too-bright light eats a hole in my finger.

I couldn't resist posting that last one, even though the photo is ruined. The sun was low and far too intense for my eyes or the camera sensor, so I was shielding the lens with my hand until I could see the horizon. But the sun bit right through my finger, apparently. Chomp! And I didn't feel a thing!
