On a cold looking drizzly November Monday morning nothing feels less fun than dragging oneself out of the comfort of the warm into the outside world.
However if you have two young and lively dogs like me then you have no choice!
And thank goddness for that - for I would have missed a beautiful sea this morning on the south east coast of England.
Living by the sea really does lift your spirits.
I am so lucky to be able to walk along the front every day and enjoy all that it provides.
This morning was no exception. It was cold - yes. And drizzly - yes. But after a short while the drizzle stopped and the sun came out.
The sea was very very calm. The tide flowed gently in and out as if not in a rush. The small ripples seemed to be happy to land on the beach. The stones were still wet from the earlier rain. The soft quite white foam seemed to contrast against the pebbles.
What is enjoyable to see is other people just stopping and looking at the ocean. Just taking a few moments out of their day to gaze across the water - enjoying the view of the sun occasionally shining onto the sea.
The clouds not moving much as there was little wind but the watery November sun still managed to come in and out of the clouds revealing welcome bright sunshine.
Painting the sea has always been a joy for me and remains one of my favourite subjects.
When it is fierce and strong this is when it inspires me most.
However for today the sea was slow and calm and well worth going out for.
thank you for reading my latest BLOG
hope you have enjoyed it
Vicky :-)
