Reflections and Ripples

My camera is loaded with shots of clouds reflected in the wet sand. Low tide was at 11:30 and what could be a more perfect time of day. The tide pools were full of critters and the gentle warm surf bathed my feet for 4 hours of exploring and walking. The ripples in the sand are so timelessly beautiful. I laid on in the sand to watch the clouds pass overhead, like most of us did when we were kids and then too often forget to do, eyes glued to our chores, our computers, our telephones.
