well, hey, turning marsh mud into gold isn't easy either.... it was low tide and I was standing on the far end of the long boardwalk in yarmouthport, way out in the marsh at grays beach...

My dad used to say I had too much lead in my ... and never hurried. Maybe it was gold after all. Now I'm in the Golden Years and I feel like Lead. I like the shades of blue mixed with the golden hue of the sand. Maybe life really isn't all fun and games. Very nice post Mary.

A different way of looking at things... you really brought out the beauty of this spot. I love your framing of this image, Mary! The angle works so well with the natural tidal flow.

I agree with Joanie that it's the light and shadow that make this one shine!!

Mary, what I like about this picture is that if you have a silly mind like I have instead of mud in a marsh I see a view of the Earth from a satellite.Yes, I know it's daft but look at it again. If the water is sea then the mud is land. Isn't it clear?

It can be loving but not true or true but not loving. We need a new word - trove - lorue - something like that. :)

Fabulous. I remember that textured darkish stuff. One can bounce on it.
You know, this image could almost be an aerial view of a some islands.

I really love this picture. It reminds me of some of the marshes and estuaries we have here. The lighting and angle and ripples of water are great! Just one question: Where are all of the birds? :)

I find this picture has a very uplifting mood. And it really does look like the sand is strewn with gold!
