I think I need a day at the beach, sigh . . . These are beautiful shots, Vlad! Is this in Florida?

Yes, Florida. Actually, two different beaches, at Amelia Island and St. Pete Beach, on opposite sides of Florida. That’s how the sun manages to rise and set off the same beach :-)
Thanks, Lynn!

Wonderful beach scrap book (couldn’t get it to slideshow) even when there’s nothing, there’s always something to watch on a beach.

Exactly! The St. Pete beach at first looked rather empty, but there was so much going on! On one occasion, in three or four hours I got enough photos for many posts over the past year, and I am still not done with them all :-)

anything with twins in gets my vote nowadays ;)
just what I needed after a wet day in North Wales ^_^

Yes, it’s just a bit different down there in Florida ;-)
But there are also quite a few people there who would love to exchange the heat of Florida for a few wet days in North Wales! It’s all about variety…

They are all breathtakingly beautiful. I love the birds as well – how they stand together on the sand as if they where exact copies of one another. Great light.

I love the way the birds do that, too :-)
