The sun was shining this morning as we set off after a hearty breakfast, for our usual wave watching walk at Barricane Beach.
The tide was just going out leaving a clean washed beach for us to explore.
It was very windy so I decided that I would try and capture the 'sea horses' being blown from the tops of the waves. My camera was being especially unco-operative in focusing and driving me mad so I have finally decided to invest in a new camera, one that actually focuses when I try and zoom in on a shot. If I do some research this week my local camera shop will match any internet price and I can try out the cameras before making a final decision. Peter will be on hand to advise and give the benefit of his professional experience. (You have to give the men something to do and he was a professional photographer.)
I was happy with this shot but it was the only one of the close ups that was in focus.
For the rest I had to stick to longer shots.
I do like the way the sun is sparkling on the sea here.
Rather blurry but great sea-horses.
Better, but too far out.Back home it was more school work followed by a lovely Chinese meal cooked by Linas and now it's off to watch House and get an early night before another week of work begins.

Great shots of the sea. I like the one you called sparkly best. It looks like its very cold!!
Hope you find a camera to your liking.
I am very excited about you potentially getting a new camera - can't wait to see what you'll be able to do with a functioning focus.
Great snaps of the sea anyway.
Good luck with finding a new camera at the right price. Always a very exciting purchase. You have a wonderful eye for photography and I can imagine how frustrating it must be to see a scene but not be able to capture it to your hearts content.
