inspiring places / coastal

some things transcend language, each providing a universal touchstone of experience. such is the shore, which varies so dramatically from place to place. it is a zone of transition where the elements always are at play, creating a moving, infinitely detailed and ever changing worldscape.

I have been taking photograhps at the coast for a long time, some of which can be seen by clicking here.  some sense of the motion is evident in still photographs, but now I have begun to try some videos, too, to explore it in the extended time dimension. included too, is some of the rhythm of ocean sound.  but so far, unfortunately, the taste of seawater, the touch of sun and ocean breeze, and the salty scents the breeze carries elude electronic recording!
