Beach & More Beach
This is Birubi Point at Port Stephens, NSW. It is the start of a 32km (20m for those non-metric peeps) stretch of sandy beach that runs all the way to Stockton Beach in Newcastle ️ If you like sand this is the place to be. It starts maybe 30m up the beach from the the pic just beyond those rocks, but you know what I mean. And if you get hungry while there, you can always grab a sand-which. Which I guess tastes like "multi grain" bread. Or not. Anyway , Friday night here so must be Friday wherever you are in this wonderful world of ours. Nearly the weekend, hang in there 😀 Cheers 🍻

Reynisfjara
The black sand stretches beneath the dramatic cliffs, while the towering basalt columns rise like something carved by giants. Just offshore stand the jagged Reynisdrangar sea stacks, which, according to Icelandic folklore, were once trolls trying to drag a ship from the sea. They stayed out too long, and when the sun rose, they were turned to stone. Across the water, Dyrhólaey rises above the coastline. Standing there, surrounded by black sand, basalt and the wild Atlantic, it is easy to understand how a landscape like this could inspire stories of trolls and magic. © All rights reserved Images may not be copied or used in any way without my written permission.

Possidi Beach
Possidi Beach is one of Kassandra’s most striking coastal spots, where brilliant turquoise and deep-blue waters meet a long sweep of golden sand. On a sunny day, the changing shades of blue, aqua and emerald are incredible, especially around the famous Possidi Cape where the narrow strip of sand reaches into the Aegean Sea. The contrast between the crystal-clear water, pale sand and endless blue horizon makes it an unforgettable place to swim—and a spectacular location for photography.

Glacis Beach
Mahé, Seychelles, Indian Ocean We had booked a private island tour on the Sunday and unbeknown to us the Seychelles is quite a religious place and everywhere is more or less shut, even some of the tourist spots and places of interest. Our driver for the day was Chris (a co-founder of Ocean Blue Travel) and upon meeting us at our hotel was a little concerned as to what he could show us. I explained we wanted to see things a little off the beaten track and places that tourists often overlook. Chris didn’t disappoint and it transpired he knows everybody and I mean everybody all over the island. This is our 8th stop of the tour, and it’s only just gone midday. This is Glacis Beach on the west coast and almost the northern most point of Mahe. Nothing particularly outstanding from the roadside (beach wise) but I noticed all the colourful fishing boats and Chris smartly pulled over. “Just the sort of thing I’m interested in photographing, do you think they’ll mind“, I asked. “No problem” replied Chris “I know them all, I’ll introduce you to them”. And that was the tone of the day… meet and greet and shoot the different.

Westport beach
Westport Beach, also known as West Port Beach, is a spectacular six-mile stretch of golden sand located on the wild Atlantic coast of the Kintyre Peninsula in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Situated roughly 5 miles north of Campbeltown just off the A83, it is widely celebrated as one of the finest beaches in Western Scotland. The beach runs along Machrihanish Bay and is backed by the sweeping Machrihanish Dunes, a protected Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)

Estiuejant sota la drassana / Summertime... under the shipyard

Si les platges principals de Sestri Levante son molt interessants per al estiueig, just al costat, a Riva Trigosso, hi ha un contrast força bestia just al mig de la sorra. Les dressanes militars de Fincantieri es troben al mig de la platja, partint-la completament. Fundades el 1897, s'especialitzen en la producció de vaixells militars italians. En aquesta foto en concret crec que constrïen el vaixell oceanografic Quirinale (i al darrera la patrullera Uvaldo Vivaldi). it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantiere_navale_di_Riva_Trigoso ============================== Picture taken with a Hasselblad 500 C/M, made in 1979; Carl Zeiss Planar f2.8/80mm lens with yellow filter; Ilford FP4+ film developed in XTOL 1+1. While Sestri Levante’s main beaches are great for a summer getaway, right next door in Riva Trigoso, there is a striking contrast right on the sand: the Fincantieri military shipyard sits in the middle of the beach, cutting it completely in two. Founded in 1897, the yard specializes in building Italian military vessels. In this particular photo, I believe they were constructing the oceanographic ship *Quirinale* (with the patrol vessel *Uvaldo Vivaldi* in the background). it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantiere_navale_di_Riva_Trigoso

Heraion at Perachora
Imagine standing here more than 2,500 years ago, when the sanctuary of Hera at Perachora was alive with worshippers, sailors and travellers arriving from across the Gulf of Corinth. Where people swim today, small wooden boats would have entered the protected cove, bringing visitors to the sanctuary. The smell of the sea would have mixed with smoke and incense from offerings being made to Hera only steps from the water. On a hot Greek afternoon, it isn't difficult to imagine people slipping into the same clear blue water to cool themselves after their journey. Looking back toward shore, instead of ruins, you would have seen the sanctuary standing above the cove, its stone buildings, columns and sacred areas filled with activity. The cliffs, the mountains across the gulf and that beautiful little bay would have looked remarkably familiar. The buildings and people have disappeared, but the sea they looked out upon—and perhaps swam in—is essentially the same one we see today. For a photographer standing here now, that may be the most fascinating part: you aren't simply looking at an ancient place. You're standing inside a landscape the ancient Greeks themselves once saw.
