This weeks photo challenge is simply titled, Weekly Photo Challenge: Sea. Those who follow me know that I have an affinity for the ocean, and may expect a shot of us sailing the Caribbean or something. Not happening. The shot I have chosen was taken in Eastbourne, UK in 2008. Eastbourne is on the English Channel. We were along the beach, when I noticed Lori’s young cousin standing on a pylon staring off into the sea. I always liked this picture and am happy to have had this opportunity to post it here. She captures almost exactly what I feel like when I am on or beside the sea. The sheer power of the ocean, and the peace it usually has is awe-inspiring and at the same time, contemplative.

My feeling exactly. I can feel my whole body relax when I get near a large body of water.
Love it. All I can compare it too is the mountains. I get that feeling there as well
Mountains do it for me too, but just on a lesser scale than oceans!
Exactly. I think that’s a natural feeling. I also feel it, although less so, on the prairies, especially when a storm is coming in
All those repetitive waves, pounding and splashing, wash our cares down to a manageable size. 🙂
Succinctly put
