With a photo challenge incorporating peacefulness, how could I not join in? I always find the beach peaceful–no matter what the weather or the time of day–so I’m sharing a few ocean vistas for Cee’s Black and White Challenge (CBWC) – Peaceful.
I am an avid nature and ecology lover and enjoy sharing my photography in my blog writings. I will often be out early in the morning or late in the evening with my camera, trying to capture the peacefulness and beauty around me.

I do miss the beach from the Bay Area and Santa Cruz area! Your images take me right back there. I can almost hear the waves and the smell the sea. You know when we visit our son in SoCAL and go for daily walks on the beach I noticed straight-away it doesn’t smell the same as Santa Cruz to Half Moon Bay. I miss that beachy smell! Silly but I do.
Iβm glad you enjoyed these photos. I live in SoCal and I know exactly what you mean about the smells. I can remember them too when I look at photos of beaches up north. I miss it too! π
Fabulous seascapes Dawn π
