Alone I stand...watching
the wall of ocean waves
crashing its force...against
glowing inky cliffs
in magical awe I...breathe
I touch and taste...salted
ocean waters...silver
rain washes my...upturned
face as I am feeling...
electrifying droplets
massage my skin...sounds
of turbulance are...like
echoes of resounding thunder
choosing its destination
as my heart and mind...are
filled with this phenomenon
sounds of the sea...sing
a haunting melody...one
that seeks my every fiber
floating around my soul
with surging excitement
these cliffs are as magnets
to these ocean giants
rising and falling quickly
sharply striking blackness
there is nothing now...
only me and the sea...

by Verena I did a touch of special effect editing on this photo, just to bring out more of the beauty of the beach and clouds and to make it appear more like a painting too. Hope you all enjoy. I will be going to the beach tomorrow, so I will find more good shots I hope.

Nice landscape with the clouds and the beach Verena. The texture is good. You sound alone in a crowd.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

I like the way everything seems to be rushing towards a single small point in the horizon. Well done!

What an arousal of emotions and feelings, displayed in your poem and likewise this image, Verena!! Wow! I love the full expanse and perspective, as well as the drama in the clouds and reflections! I'm also enjoying the light painterly effects. Very impressive work my friend! Faved.
