Happiness is to be by the ocean

Back posting ...

First, I would like to say that I absolutely, completely and utterly appreciate all the comments I have received since joining SC.  You are all so generous with your time and genuine enthusiasm for supporting fellow journeyers in capturing moments - big and small - through the lens. They have made me feel good about what I am doing and how I see things. And I appreciate the cc that has been there as well. How else can one grow if not through listening to how others see the same thing.

For the next little while, however, I have changed my preferences to no comments because I have been feeling incredibly guilty and stressed that 1) I haven't kept up with replies to the lovely comments you have left and  2) my swings through all the fantastic images posted here are very inconsistent and 3) because I would like to post images that run the gamut from personal, to crappy-but-I-love-it, to yeah, I think I did ok on this without worrying that it's not good enough or interesting enough or whatever I  stupidly worry about.  I would love to comment on the amazing work I see here without feeling that in doing so, I have put some kind of pressure for there to be a reciprocal comment even if that day's image of mine was stinky or boring or whatever.

I have left my email address on the profile and I believe one can always shoot a line through the contact link if someone is compelled to comment :-).

This girl is a stranger we met at the beach who, every day, would come by  our beach stake-out and ask very politely to play with the dogs. She was a sprite on the beach.
