Renewal: a Walk on the Beach

For many people – and dogs, a walk along the seashore is the very best way of clearing the cobwebs and giving the busy mind a good old spring clean. A renewal, in fact.

    1. Ah yes. That’s because you don’t fall off bikes. I have been unable to master the art, much to my cycling-afficonado husband’s disgust. And doubtless yours too.

  9. Oh yes, a walk on a beach is the perfect way to renew and revitalise! It’s our favourite thing for New Years Day (we’re usually in Newcastle so can get to the coast very easily). But like your other commenters, however renewed I might feel I couldn’t see myself jumping with the abandonment of that boy in your last photo!

  12. A profound photo collection, Margaret. You reminded me of a quote by Hermann Broch: “Those who live by the sea can hardly form a single thought of which the sea would not be part.”

    1. I knw that to be true, Rebecca. I lived by the sea for about 2 years about 50 years ago, and the memories of being there, so close to the sea, whatever the weather, will never leave me.

  14. Wonderful photos, now I want to take a walk along the beach. Unfortunately, there isn’t one anywhere near here. One of my favourite things is to go camping near the ocean and fall asleep to the sound of waves.

  20. Lovely evocative shots, Margaret. It is nice to be beside the seaside and walking (or even leaping!) on the beach best of all, including in the company of dogs.
